I uninstalled Bluetooth, but the BlueTooth Devices Icon remains in
Control Panel..
How can I remove the ICON??
TweakUI seems the simplest way, but ISTR there is also a panel
somewhere within Control Panel. Appearance of any of these
module items is not controlled by whether the feature is
enabled or not.

Watch it, Jose will getcha! wink, wink, nudge, nudge. . .
I answered the question!
================
No, you questioned my answer, which was the same as Don's, but was 2
minutes
earlier, so I didn't see it.
No big deal, Jose. I'm just funning with you.

My thing is that using Tweak UI to remove the icon from the CP options
is not the same as removing the leftover files from the uninstall or
the underlying .CPL file or whatever else might be displaying it.
I prefer to fix rather than download some 3rd party app to hide things
I don't like or fix things that should be working if the first place.
Clearasil on a pimple.
I like Tweak UI and have it installed, but I don't need it. It is
darn convenient once in a while to test things!
Apparently, there is a need to figure out how to boot to MSdos98
==============
I agree, Tweak is just a band-aid and eye candy. But it is useful for a
number of things, including drives letters to show, shortcut display, etc.
It also shows what file name is associated with the icons in Control Panel.
If I had bothered to open Tweak before my original answer, I would have seen
that bthprops.cpl was the file associated with the Bluetooth icon. Even so,
as you said, that's still not uninstalling everything associated with
Bluetooth.
Various boot disk creators can be gotten here:

I used one for WinME to flash my BIOS when WinFlash wasn't working for me.
