Hi-Soft

I have a bunch of folders with my collections of icons...nice
high res fancy ones.... usually when you open these folders...you just see
all the nice icons displayed in either Thunmbnail, Tile, icon...or what ever
view you like...but still see the actual icons displaying their own pic....

At the moment on my PC ( just reformated with XP + SP2 ) ....all I see are
just a generic icons displayed for
all....just like you would for something like a notepad, word doc etc... and
I know i fixed this for a friend just the other day...but now...mental
blank...can't even fix it for myself...aaahh..

Any ideas... i know it's just a little tick box somewhere..
 
FANTASTIC...finally someone who knew what i was talking about....down loaded
that patch...and it has totally fixed my issue..!

Now I can see all of my icons..no matter what view I choose..Thumbnail,
Tiles, icon, even List...all display the actual icon pic now :)

SO what would have caused the prob in the first place...and the need for
that patch anyway ???
 
Glad that helped Hi-Soft.

No idea! Installation of third-party image editor / viewer usually hijack
the file associations.
