[Solved] Windows Explorer Favorites Link Removal


Recommended Posts

  • 1 month later...

Hi there,

 

I experienced the same problem with the reappearing BitTorrent Sync icon in the Favorites list of the Windows Explorer.

 

Deleting it and a reinstallation of BitTorrent Sync didn't help <_<

 

What worked for me: In the Windows registry, there are some entries under [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\BitTorrent\Sync]

 

- (Standard)

- ShellExtensionPath64

- ShellExtensionPath86

- ShellMenuSharingEnable

 

In my case, there was another entry called: "StoragePath"

 

I removed the "StoragePath" entry and the icon from the favorites. Since then it didn't reappear.

 

Hope that helps ;)
