| | Can I safely remove the program icons from the all programs list? Please see attached pic I would like to right click and delete most of the icons in that list with the red arrows. Is that totally safe to do?  |

| | You can delete any item from that list, but I'm not aware that you can keep the item, but delete its icon---if that is what you mean. |

| | Hi, In a word Yes. But for added piece of mind I'd suggest creating a folder on your desktop and moving the shortcuts to there in case you need to restore any of them. OS |

| | Yes you can, they are shortcuts after all. most if not all of the shortcuts can be found here: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu Deleting them wont effect the program. |
