Hello JingleJangle, and welcome to Seven Forums.
It looks like your shortcut arrow overlay icon got messed up somehow. You can use either method in the tutorial below to restore the arrow icon. Method Two is the easiest way with the program.
Shortcut Arrow - Change, Remove, or Restore
Hope this helps,
Shawn
