unable to remove icon

[Hairbautt]

To remove (reset) a drive icon, open regedit through the 'run' command found in the startmenu and go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\DriveIcons

Delete the drive letter that is giving the problems, reboot, then all is reset to normal. I've had a similar problem like this, but this solved it for me. Also, a ccleaner does have an option to remove Add/Remove Program keys, as previously stated.

so did it solve your icon and kapersky install problem?

After explorer i can't see driveicons.

Search for 'drive icons' then?

100%,did not solve my problem, after ticking the boxes for trend micro than deleting them i reboot but they were still there.I also tried registry fix but still no joy,so i'm trying to do what hairbautt said.

Hairbautt, the only thing i can see that has drive is driver signing.And the only ting with icons in is, hide my computer icons, or hide desktop icons.Thats it.

[Hairbautt]

Damnit to hell, I think it is because I am using vista icons then.

Any other ideas?

Now that you have killed the trendmicro services with hijackthis
you should be able to delete the trend micro folders.
Look in
1.program files
2.C:\Program Files\Common Files
3.C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data
4.C:\Documents and Settings\youusername\Application Data

(inorder to be able to see the folders of commonfiles and applicationdata you need to make them visible,
open explorer > tools > folder options
click on view > mark "show hidden files" > ok)

when finished, run a registry cleaner
reboot.
