Krezno just sent me a whole bunch of Longhorn icons ripped right from the OS itself - expect another release in the next few days, when I next get a chance to upload the new zip. Some of the new icons include calculator, notepad, keyboard and mouse + some Avalon icons :D watch this space...

here we go - I just updated the Longhorn Icons set to v1.0e.

Changes: I have added 9 new icons: Notepad, Keyboard, Mouse, Calculator, and 5 "Avalon" icons. Special thanks to Krezno who contributed all nine of these new icons. (Y)

See my first post for more info and download.

Remember, all icons in the Longhorn Icons pack are ripped straight from the OS itself - this is the only icons set that has these!

and again, please don't hesitate to PM me if you have more Longhorn icons that you can contribute. :)

enjoy lads! (and lass') :D

I just updated the Longhorn Icons set. It is now v1.0f.

Changes: I have removed the Portable Device icon because I realised it's a WinXP icon not Longhorn, added Games Folder icon, re-arranged the icons so it looks a bit neater.

See my first post for more info and download.

and again, please don't hesitate to PM me if you have more Longhorn icons that you can contribute.

ehrrmmmmm....a n00b question, i have managed to change the icons for my computer, network places, my documents and the recycle bin but how the h**l do i change the icons for the folders? :no:

Right-click on the folder who's icon you want to change, select properties, on the Customize tab under "folder icons" select change icon, browse for the longhorn.dll file (after unzipping the zip file of course), choose the new icon you want to use, click OK then Apply then OK again.

Note: this may not work on some system folders. For folders that don't have the Customize tab, use Axialis IconWorkshop 5

are the original longhorn icons ico files or something else? part of .dll??

Well these icons are ripped straight from Longhorn so maybe they are still ico. I'm not sure what you mean by "part of dll" though :blink:

@ Zeitgeist: which icons are you confused about?

I just updated the Longhorn Icons set. It is now v1.0g.

Changes: I have added an "image file" icon. I have also edited the clock icon; it now also has a 128x128 format.

See my first post for more info and download.

and again, please don't hesitate to PM me if you have more Longhorn icons that you can contribute.

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets another hotfix for one of the game's online modes by Taras Buria Recently, Forza Horizon 6 players discovered an interesting glitch that allowed farming a crazy amount of in-game credits in a few minutes. Playground Games quickly pulled the plug on the exploit by disabling one of the game's online modes, and today, the studio is rolling out another hotfix. In my review, I complained about the game still showering gamers with cars, credits, and wheelspins. As such, earning money in Forza Horizon 6 is not a particularly difficult task. You simply have to play the game, crazy, I know. However, people still found an easier path to becoming a billionaire in Forza Horizon 6. All you had to do was purchase the Hummer EV, install a specific tune, shift in reverse while going at about 15 MPH, hit a wall, and get launched into the stratosphere at the speed of light. While mid-air, launch Eliminator and quickly get eliminated. Boom, the game just awarded you with a few million in-game credits. Initially, Playground Games disabled Eliminator to prevent people from farming credits. Now, following the release of the first balancing update, developers are rolling out a new update that re-enables Eliminator and gives users a free McLaren Sabre as a gesture of goodwill. Here is the changelog: One critical issue remains unpatched, though. There are quite a few reports of the game wiping gamers' saves, and developers are still looking into that. To avoid potential data loss, Playground Games recommends taking one of the steps outlined in a previously published support article.
    • Dead by Daylight, Two Point Museum, and more join Xbox Free Play Days for the weekend by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe There is a brand-new Free Play Days offer available to Xbox players, giving them a chance to try out a new selection of games over the weekend. Microsoft's latest promotion brings some high-profile titles, including the sports title PGA TOUR 2K25 and the racing sim Assetto Corsa. Almost all the games being offered this time require an Xbox Game Pass subscription, with only one title being available for all players. Starting with the fully free-to-play section, Dead by Daylight is populating it solo. This asymmetric survival horror title should be the most familiar to most gamers, considering its age. The multiplayer four-versus-one asymmetric survival horror game has you assuming the roles of survivors or the killer to see who can come out on top. This Dead by Daylight offer will be available to play until Monday, June 22, giving you an extra day of play compared to the remainder of the Free Play Days titles. Meanwhile, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, Premium, and Essential members can now try out the well-received tycoon game Two Point Museum, the circuit racing sim Assetto Corsa, as well as 2K's golf sim experience that gives players a career to develop alongside real-world pros and courses. Here are the announced games and the platforms they are available to play on: PGA TOUR 2K25 (Xbox Series X|S) Two Point Museum (Xbox Series X|S) Assetto Corsa (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) Dead by Daylight (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) To easily find the titles on Xbox consoles, first head to the Store, and then in the sidebar, find the Home section. In there, open the Subscriptions tab. All the games from the Free Play Days collection will show up in this section for quick access. Apart from Dead by Daylight's offer, this week's Free Play Days promotions will end on Sunday, June 21, at 11:59 pm PT.
