MORE INFORMATION
To Delete a Shortcut in Administrative Tools
To delete a shortcut, right-click an icon within the Administrative Tools folder in Control Panel and then click Delete to delete the icon. When you do so, you are prompted for confirmation. If you confirm the deletion, the shortcut is sent to the Recycle Bin.
The Administrative Tools folder in Control Panel is a normal folder. The icons in the Administrative Tools folder are simply shortcuts to the actual programs.
This may be confusing because you cannot delete items in Control Panel in earlier versions of Windows.
To Recover a Deleted Shortcut
To recover a deleted shortcut, double-click Recycle Bin on the desktop to open it, click the deleted shortcut, and then click Restore on the File menu to restore it.
If the shortcut is no longer in the Recycle Bin, you can recreate the shortcut in the Administrative Tools folder. The shortcuts in the Administrative Tools folder are listed below.
