Can you use that to apply the new Icons? Kinda a new to the changing icons thing.

Sort of, you can use IconPackager to apply them, but its not free software. You can however to it manually, one by one using Windows.

Just right click on the file/folder, then select Customize Tab (Icon tab if its a file I believe) , then Change Icon, and browse to where you saved it. Note: Some files/folders cannot be changed. For example, you cannot change your Windows Filefolder icon.

Good luck!

heres a screen shot of SOME of them.. theres a lot more.

im actually using these icons right now, thanks to IconPackager

I've done a quick package which is located here:

Feel free to edit em' all up and replace ones I may have missed, I did it quite quickly as I have to get ready for the nite out'

Enjoy!

Tomorrow I'll go through other files and such where some icons might be if anyone doesn't do it by then.

Is there a reason why MS never updates all of their icons?  I mean at least update some of the ancient ones.  These new ones are decent but I just don't feel like it's enough for such a huge release like Vista.

EDIT: Thanks for the upload though.

I agree. Some of the icons in XP were in Windows 95

    • I like mesh chairs like this, but not being able to lock in the back would make it not work for me. Also, I don't like arm rests at all. Can you not install them and the chair still work? Any recommendations on alternative chairs?
    • As before, my notes are in your quoted section. To be clear, you started posting racist, fascist nonsense. And I always challenge lies and the liars that peddle them. Why? Because the truth matters.
    • Deal for those who want 1900 size electronics in their house? with 2026/7 hardware mhm.. not nice
    • Cheap labour, the same as the U.K. China pays their people pittance.
    • Those people that come over here on boats are already in a safe country, if they want to come over here then do so correctly though the right channels. I was born in the U.K, my family that came over here came so via the proper means. My partner came here via the correct channels, she also became a British citizen, she knows more about this country than most of them that was born here, including myself, she worked hard to do what she does. She will stick up for this country and have done a few times, when people from her own part of world have put the U.K down. We are not going to agree, all I said to start with is that maybe Trump has the right idea with this America first thing and maybe we should start doing the same. Maybe not as drastic as what he is doing, but we do need to sort this country out, we need to sort out tech instead of relying on the U.S and others. Again you have not shown why you are so annoyed that we have left the E.U and this is what it is all about? If you don't live in the U.K and live in the E.U are you annoyed that we left your little club? If you live in the U.K and is pro-E.U, then fair enough then I can see how it annoys you. Are you one of these people who lives in the U.K and have a holiday chalet in the E.U and can now only stay there for so long? If so, then that is bad luck. As I have posted before, I have no problem with people coming here to work, as long as they do if via the proper channels. We are out of the E.U, people voted out, and maybe if more people had voted instead of sitting on their backsides the results would have been different. But they like the E.U and our government thought no we would not vote to leave. How wrong they were, surprised me. I expected to wake up in the morning and hear on the radio that we voted to stay. As I said, we are out and have been for 10 years, we are not going to go back in anytime soon if we ever do, so we all need to make the best of how things are. Anyway, this is supposed to be a tech site.
