You might just need to refresh your icon cache (or however it's called)

You need the xp powertoys tweak ui, is an option in there

Maybe this is ok.

But how to install these? Do i have to change each icon manually?

Thanks, the patcher works well.

I have fixed the icons link, the patcher link worked fine, sry for that.

The patcher should work with any version of XP.

I have made the patcher work with every icon in the files so its very easy for me to update if I find anymore icons and everyone can update fine :)

:laugh:

[rojack]

meh - a lot of fussin' over these icons, which are crap... :)

[Mike_Wilson]

no one is forcing you to use them, if you dont like them dont use them and dont post.

EZRecovery - You either havent replaced the correct icons or your icon cache isnt fully refreshed. I just replace the file then I boot into safe mode which refreshs the cache and then I boot into normal windows. Works brilliant and saves using programs to do it.

i cant get my patcher to work ??? :pinch:

[Mike_Wilson]

what is the problem Von_Beard, any errors? whats happening?

Ive added mydocs.dll support to the patcher, instructions are straight forward.

[Von_Beard]

i get the output and every thing repalce the explorer and shell32.dll but i think its cuz i got tune up utillites 2004 replacing my current icons its keeping them

Thanks for the update. Works great.

[Mike_Wilson]

probably because windows is installin a backup from system32/dllcache, I rename the file in there also to .bak on the end so windows cannot replace the file.

It would be nice if you would provide an updated patcher.

[JustGeorge]

Yes after its considered finished, then an updated patcher would be nice. I was using Icontweaker, but its so limited as far as what it will allow you to change. Don't forget of course that if MS updates one of these files with a security update or when we go SP3, all these files will be useless. I wish they would just allow Icon/theme changing to be a native feature and not something you have to hack to get done :(

[EZRecovery]

@Mike_Wilson - Haha, at work since we use Novell Client, it gave me an error with the lgnw32.dll file was corrupted. Thats easy to fix, I just have to download the latest Novell Client and fix it.

Besides that, the icons worked fine. Will keep an eye for more updates.

Thanks for your work and help (Y)

updated the patcher with iexplore.

It wont be useless, it can just be addapted, isnt hard.

At least the IE icon was missing in the package of ico files i downloaded from your site.

[BigGiantHead]

Can you add this Virtual Folder icon?

[EZRecovery]

^ ^

That icon looks great. I have a bluish background setup, so it will look good if I tweak the icons to that one. :p

Check these two:

edit: Do not want to make Mike_Wilson upset cause I'm posting all these icons and themes from other places, not my intention, but since this is a Vista thread, I thought I could add more gifts to it. :D
