Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes a display, an instruction receiving unit, and a controller. The display displays a screen containing a fundamental icon and an associated icon. The fundamental icon is an icon for selecting execution of a certain function. The associated icon is associated with the fundamental icon. The instruction receiving unit receives an instruction to delete an icon displayed on the screen by the display. The controller exerts control in such a manner that, when the icon is the fundamental icon, the instruction receiving unit does not delete the fundamental icon.

An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a display that displays a screen containing:
- (i) a fundamental icon, the fundamental icon being an icon for selecting execution of a certain function;
- (ii) an associated icon, the associated icon being associated with the fundamental icon;
- and (iii) a folder icon in which a plurality of icons may be stored;
- an instruction receiving unit that receives an instruction to delete an icon or a folder icon displayed on the screen by the display;
- and
- a controller that exerts control to distinguish between the fundamental icon and the associated icon, wherein
- when the icon is the fundamental icon, the fundamental icon for which the instruction to delete is received is not deleted, and data associated with the fundamental icon is not deleted, and instead, the fundamental icon for which the delete instruction is received is hidden,
- when the icon is the associated icon, the controller exerts control such that the associated icon for which the instruction to delete is received is deleted, and data associated with the associated icon is deleted, based on user selection, and
- when the instruction receiving unit receives an instruction to delete the folder icon and the plurality of icons stored in the folder icon, the controller exerts control such that:
- each of the plurality of icons that is a fundamental icon is not deleted;
- and
- each of the plurality of icons that is an associated icon is deleted, based on user selection.
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process comprising:
- displaying a screen containing:
- (i) a fundamental icon, the fundamental icon being an icon for selecting execution of a certain function;
- (ii) an associated icon, the associated icon being associated with the fundamental icon;
- and (iii) a folder icon in which a plurality of icons may be stored;
- receiving an instruction to delete an icon or a folder icon displayed on the screen;
- and
- exerting control to distinguish between the fundamental icon and the associated icon, wherein
- when the icon is the fundamental icon, the fundamental icon for which the instruction to delete is received is not deleted, and data associated with the fundamental icon is not deleted, and instead, the fundamental icon for which the delete instruction is received is hidden,
- when the icon is the associated icon, the associated icon for which the instruction to delete is received is deleted, and data associated with the associated icon is deleted, based on user selection, and
- when an instruction to delete the folder icon and the plurality of icons stored in the folder icon is received:
- each of the plurality of icons that is a fundamental icon is not deleted;
- and
- each of the plurality of icons that is an associated icon is deleted, based on user selection.
