ico File Extension

[C and A Bredt]

I am running Vista Home Premium.
When I right click an image on my desktop,
and select Preview, it displays my jpg photos plus
a dsc.ico icon and a keyboard.ico icon.

I don't know where these came from and they didn't
appear a few weeks ago. They are not listed under
Desktop in windows Explorer.

Do you know what they are? Can I delete them
during the preview?

Thanks, CB

Those are probably created automatically by Vista. Harmless. You can
delete them but they may come back.

They are icons.

They are icons.

But I didn't put them there.
They were not there a few weeks ago.

Any idea how they got here and if I can delete them?

Thanks, cb

As I said a week ago, go ahead and delete them.
If you prefer, move them to the recycle bin, then empty the bin after a
few days if no problems show up.
