Re: Remove My Bluetooth Places icon


Follow the same instructions for XP: 1) Find the this registry:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{6af09ec9-b429-11d4-a1fb-0090960218cb} 2)
Export it for a backup 3) remove this key and subfolders 4) reboot 5)
delete the icon that now appears as a blank page on the desktop -Alex

Re: Remove My Bluetooth Places icon

This is what you do to remove the icon: open regedit and find
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows \CurrentVersion\explorer\Desktop\NameSpace.
These are all your desktop icons. One of them is My Blutooth places. You can delete it and the icon will go. The only thing left for you to do is to double click on the (Default) key and read what icon that is. Cheers
