Unable to remove shortcut
Hello! I installed "The Sims 2" on my computer but uninstalled it the next
day as I have Windows Vista and it wasn't really compatible, but the desktop shortcut is still there. I have tried right-clicking to delete it but a message appears saying that it cannot find the file (obviously because I have uninstalled the program) and asks me to verify the location before I can delete it. I did uninstall the program correctly through the option in "Control Panel" and I did not see any option to uninstall it manually so I'm really stuck! Any help would be greatly appreciated! |

Try refreshing the desk top or log off and back on.
