Disable “shortcut to” prefix without external programs
This tweak stops windows creating the annoying “shotcut to” prefix when creating shortcuts to the desktop via either dragging/ dropping or right clicking and selecting send to . This means that you do not need to rename all those shortcuts on your desktop . Here’s how:
Start Registry Editor.
Locate the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer
Modify the data value of the Link value to be 00 00 00 00.
NOTE : For Windows 95, the Link value does not exist by default. Create the Link value as a Binary value, with a data value of 00 00 00 00.
Restart the computer.

I used the shortcut ctrl+alt+f1 to enable my monitor and now I can’t see anything. My computer screen went blank so I tried shutting it down and powering it back up to fix it but that didn’t work. what shortcut could I use to get my screen to work?
