Desktop Icons Text Remove Them

Are you fed‐up with the text display on you Icons ?

Well you can remove the text if you so desire and here is how :‐

Right click on the Icon whose title you want to remove

Select Rename. Now instead of entering any characters ( Alphabetical letters ) in the text box,

Hold down the ALT key and type 255 For example :‐(ALT + 2 + 5 + 5).

__**Note:‐**__

You need to use the NUMPAD numbers for this to work (i.e. the numbers to the right of your arrow keys, not the ones at the top of the keyboard).

When you release the ALT key the title will be blank, then you press ENTER to accept this (Blank titles are usually denied under Windows, but not this way).

The sad and fiddly bit is that for every other icon which you wish to remove the title,

Do the same as above, but for each and every subsequent icon youʹll have to add a further ʹ255ʹ to the end of the string which you enter.

That is, to blank a second icon name, youʹll need to

Hold down ALT and type 255 then another 255 then release ALT.

For a third, and subsequent numbers youʹll have to type ALT 255 255 255, and so on.

Never mind if it achieves what you want it is worth the effort.
