Spørsmålet
SuperUser leser Reza Mamun vil vite hvorfor det er to identisk navngitte desktop.ini-filer på Windows-skrivebordet:
When I try to delete one of these two shortcuts (files), a message appears saying: If you remove this file, Windows or another program may no longer work correctly.
I do not think it is possible to keep two identically named files in the same directory. Is this some type of malware or anything that could be harmful to my computer?
Hvorfor er det to identisk navngitte desktop.ini-filer på sitt Windows-skrivebord?
Svaret
SuperUser-bidragsyter Daniel B har svaret for oss:
One of them is in the “All Users” profile (%PUBLIC%Desktop). The other is in your profile (%USERPROFILE%Desktop). They are both hidden system files. If you want them to disappear, you will have to set Windows Explorer to hide them. This is also the default setting.
There is nothing malware-based about this, this is perfectly normal behavior.
By default, they contain information on where to get the icon and localized folder name. On regular folders, where the “Customize” tab is available in their properties, these settings are stored in desktop.ini too. Here is more (albeit old) information.
