Hello,
The "Removable Storage Devices" icon appeared on my desktop,
after a wrong click.
I can't find the "remove" option.
How can I delete this icon?
Thank you for your response,
Best regards,
Françoise

Configuration: Windows / Chrome 100.0.4896.127

    Hello Jfmimi,
    Thank you for your quick response.
    I managed to get rid of that icon
    a few good minutes after leaving a message
    on the site "How it works".
    Don't ask me how I did it...
    I wouldn't be able to remember.
    By making various attempts, the icon disappeared.
    Best regards,
    Françoise Petitdemange

      Hello,

      For another time, when we don't want to complicate things and search for the culprit in the registry or who-knows-where, the unbeatable argument is Unlocker in 2 clicks:

      But we must not let the tree hide the forest: if the problem is recurring, it may be indicative of a virus, for example.
