Title: All icons are generic how do I change them back? Post by: Barry Scott on Wednesday, September 8, 2010, 12:15:14 I've been a bit of knob and to save a small amount of performance turned all installed program icons to generic icons that resemble bat files without the cog inside.
I thought it's be rather cool, but now I think it's twatty and annoying. Any ideas how to allow the program to use it's own icon again please? Thanking you kindly on this day of stupidity. :) By the way I suspect this a reg tweak as this wasn't done to individual icons using the shell32.dll or anything - this was done when I created the new iso. :headhurts: Title: Re: All icons are generic how do I change them back?

I'll just do my 5th reinstall of windows (and loads of fucking drivers) instead, because my clever removal of some other MS gash has meant a few other things don't work. It does use only 31mb of ram though. :D
