I tried this registry tweak to remove the shortcut arrows, which worked on Windows 7, but doesn't work on Windows 8 anymore. It just shows a white space instead of an arrow.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\lnkfile]
"IsShortcut"=""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\InternetShortcut]
"IsShortcut"=""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\piffile]
"IsShortcut"=""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WSHFile]
"IsShortcut"=""
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Icons]
"29"=-
