When an icon is added it creates two icons. Why does this happen?

    Hi Nancy,

    Does renaming one icon rename the other too?

    Please do the following:

    • Right-click on the icon and click Properties. Post a screenshot of that dialog.
    • Right-click on the duplicate icon and click Properties. Post a screenshot of that dialog.
