It's possible with WindowFX (48x48), IconX (Part of DesktopX) does'nt support the nameless Icons.

If anyone knows a free solution, please let me know!  :)

Uhm... they're not freeware...

Anyway, I have another problemwith the recycle bin without text: even if I replace the three icons in "defaulticon" folder I still have the shell32 ones.

How do I get rif of this?

I don't know a freeware solution, but if someone does,.. please post it! :D

About the Recycle Bin: try to change the icons the default way (Display Properties -> Desktop Tab -> Customize Desktop...)

Which reg file are you using?

"Add Recycle Bin MUP.reg" or "Add Recycle Bin.reg"?

When you are using the "Add Recycle Bin MUP.reg" (this one is only needed when you have Multiple User Profiles on your Computer, otherwise all users get a nameless Recycle Bin) you can change the icon here:

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{00000000-5020-0000-0000-000000000002}\DefaultIcon]

@="X:\\Icondir\\Icon.ico"

This Recycle Bin doesn't change his Icon when it's full & you can't drag files in it, but you can empty and open it.

@ request: one for FlashFXP

Context Menu:

FlashFXP

? Locked

? Maximized

? Minimized

? Tray

Repair RegSet

FlashFXP Help

The Locked command starts FlashFXP locked to the tray, using "neowin" as the password.

To change the password, search for -lock="neowin" in the registry and change neowin to your new password.

The Repair RegSet command fixes FlashFXP's registry associations and updates the registry "Install Path" with the current location of FlashFXP.

    • Apple's AI smart glasses and Vision headset plans reportedly delayed, again

      By AnalystDan · Posted

      Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By grunger106 · Posted

      So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
    • I Can't Wrap My Head Around This Number - Google to buy computing from SpaceX at $920 million per month

      By Nick H. · Posted

      What I can't seem to understand is that Google are paying SpaceX? Surely it would be the other way round, with SpaceX needing Google's datacenters etc.? Oh well, this level of money and power is way outside of my comprehension at the best of times.
