I recently installed Windows Vista Starter on my old PC just for an upgrade, i wanna know how to remove the icon on the bottom right screen that shows "Windows Vista Starter".......it's not really a big deal but when i use internet browsers i can see it on top as well, here's a screenshot of wat i mean:

Have you tried right clicking on the Icon and selecting Delete?
If that doesn't work, are you sure it is an Icon?
Can you move it?

it looks like an icon but it's not, sry for my description it's actually fixed to the wallpaper, at least i think it does.....i can't move it or delete it, it's just fixed to the wallpaper and i tried changing it but it's still there, it's like a permanant logo or picture or something fixed there and it appears on top of anything i open except for games.

If it is not an icon and if placing a Window over it does not hide it, then it won't be a part of the Wallpaper. But, you say certain games can lay over it making it look like it has disappeared.

I did find this definition of your version:
Windows Starter 2007

Aimed at beginner computer users in emerging markets who can only afford a low cost PC. As with the XP version, Windows Starter 2007 (note that it's not branded as Window Vista) is a subset of Vista Home Basic, and will ship in a 32-bit version only (no 64-bit x64 version). Starter 2007 will allow only three applications (and/or three windows) to run simultaneously, will provide Internet connectivity but not incoming network communications, and will not provide for logon passwords or Fast User Switching (FUS). Starter 2007 is analogous to XP Starter Edition. This version will only be sold in emerging markets.

Windows Starter 2007 is lacking a number of unique features found in most of the other Vista product editions. There is no Aero user interface, for example, and no support for Castle-based networking. Other missing features include DVD Authoring, gaming common controller support, and image editing with enhanced touchup.

The marketing message: For beginner computer users in emerging markets who can only afford a low cost PC, Windows Starter 2007 provides a more affordable and easy introduction to personal computing because it is lower priced, tailored to the needs of beginner personal computer users, compatible with a wide range of Windows-based applications and devices, and tailored to each market.

I do not think MS wants the Start image to easily be removed. I looked for tweaker websites who might have a program that would remove it, but was not successful. Since the version is basically intended for low cost PC, I would not expect any third party programming support soon.

If it really bothers you, my best recommendation is upgrade to the Vista Basic or higher.


Good Luck...
