how to change file icons?

Im not sure If I downloaded something or I did something but all of my ISOs and CSOs and roms and some other types of files look like this


How do I change them back so they lok like this?


Its proably an easy fix, Thanks.

 

oops put in the wrong link, just copy them to the address bar.

 

hey master353 i have never experience what you describe, but i found some information that might be useful.

delete the file IconCache.db and restart windows. upon next start-up, windows should automatically recreate a new IconCache and should in theory rebult the icons as per default.

for reference, here is the website I got the information from
http://www.smartcomputing.com/editorial/article.asp?article=articles/archive/l0806/39l06/39l06.asp

hope this works for you.

 

ok, il try it now. Tell you if it workins in 5 mins.

 

And one more thing, I was reading that article and the title says disappearing shortcuts, I ffoyu have more than one accounts on the same computer and one account deletes something from the desktop, it effects the other people too. Thats what ahppened to me.

 

THat worked, Thanks.

 

glad to hear it worked.
