One way might be via TweakUI (for XP). If this is not
installed on your system, then download it from http://
www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/powertoys.asp
Note: V2.10.0.0 needs Windows XP SP 1
If you do not have SP1, the earlier version of TweakUI can be found at
http://download.microsoft.com/download/whistler/Install/2/WXP/EN-US/TweakUiPowertoySetup.exe
In TweakUI, navigate to
| Repair | Repair Icons | [Repair Now]
---
Another way might be via David Candy's procedure -
| To refresh the icons in the system,
| | Control Panel | Display | /Appearance\ [Advanced],
| change the size of icons
| click [Apply]
| then change the size back.
