Is there any similar method to hide text on files/folders that can be found on the desktop?

This is actually incorrect - at least in Windows 11. If you follow the instructions and put the "-50" on the end, you get a black box where the arrow used to be. Per Microsoft, if you just use "50" (without the minus sign), it will create a transparent area, not a black area, which is what we're all looking for. Hope this helps!

Is the black box issue sorted out?

Forget about these gymnastics with string values. JUST DELETE THE CODE YOU PUT IN 29 (i.e. %windir%\System32\shell32.dll,-50) AND RESTART.

thank you. before watching this, I did this with third-party software. now by following you, I did this without any software. Thank you.

ACTUAL FIX FOR WINDOWS 11 USERS: the black box is a windows 11 specific issue, but to fix it, don't follow any of the stuff others have listed cause i tried them and they didn't work. i found a fix instead where you double click the string value you made and just get rid of the value data and leave it blank. restart explorer, restart your pc, and it should actually stay blank this time. it worked for me, just thought i would share. hope it works for yall!

Damn dude! Awesome Vid! Very fast and precise. Thank you so much!

I did this and it worked like a charm until I had to reboot. After reboot where there were once arrows were now black boxes that were almost as large as the icons themselves. I tried to restart Explorer but to no avail so I just went into the registry and deleted what I created. All is back to normal now and I'm happier with the arrows rather than this "fix." Sorry, but this didn't work too well for me.

Thank you so much, it was so annoying having those arrows there.

For people who got a black square, here is how to fix: 1. Download a blank, transparent .png and convert it to .ico file format 2. Save it somewhere in your pc, and copy its path 3. at 2:47 paste the path to the value data instead of what shown in the video This should work.

@@JonnyLpW Are you sure that you got the path right? Double check to see if you included the name of the blank picture file at the end. I removed the file's name from the path and it too showed white pages so this must be your problem. For example if you put "blank.ico" in a folder named "Picture" in the C drive. The path is "C:\Picture\blank.ico" and not just "C:\Picture" If that can't solve it then I'm out of idea. It works fine for me. Maybe try increasing the size of the .ico to 128x128

Thank you so much sir for your best guide ☺️

thank u so much u saved bro thanis 100% live life

IF YALL GOT BLACK BOXES DELETE WHAT YOU CREATED AND MAKE A NEW ONE BUT DONT PUT ANYTHING IN THE VALUE DATA thats what worked for me anyways OR you can change the size of your icons to something smaller and i think that works too

Oh yes we all have this problem So I kind of solved it but not in the same time. There is no way to solve it permanently although u can delet thumbnails using DISK CLEANUP and then restart file explorer from the task manager but unfortunately u have to do that every time u boot up This problem still occurred to me even when I formatted my laptop (wasn't for that particular reason) so that unfortunately is the only solve I don't know why windows doesn't make it an option
