Wash them in very hot water?  ;D Neal will be around to tell you later if it is possible.

Welcome to PCLinuxOS. Enjoy Your time here.

Open PCManFM and check the settings there :). You will find what You need.

I will log into LXDE and make You a video Hold on.

Edit: Video ready.

spacecoastpete,
Welcome to PCLinuxOS. It looks like Leiche and Andy have answered your question - PCManFM > Edit > Preferences. :D They're good at this. :D And Leiche's tip about PCLinuxOS Magazine is a very good one. You'll find it has some exceptional articles on LXDE.

Hey, Texstar! I only dozed off for a couple of minutes! ;) ;) Honest! ;D

Ten thousand comedians out of work and Texstar is trying to be funny.

Seriously though, thanks to all the comments.  Your info helped me solve this one.
