Hello there, welcome to Seven Forums.

Here are a couple of links which should help you out:

Change shortcut icon - changing shortcut icons(the process is the same for others)
Icofx free program for icon creation, extraction & editing
Iconviewer - the name speaks for itself

TY so much ill give them a look. the reason i ask is i found some cool icons on the web for some games i play and wasnt sure how to change them on the actual program so they show up in the games folder

Alice

No problem, glad to help.

im using iconfx to change the icons but still showing defaults in windows 7 games folder but new icons everywhere else/ am i doing something wrong???

Alice

Try this: change icons using resource hacker

ty ill give it a try after i eat some lunch

Alice

No sweat, report if you have any problems, I'll be happy to help.

i found out what is happening. the windows games folder is automatically updating the icons from off the web i did change them but the windows games folder over rides them

It's such a minor thing, don't even worry about it.
The main thing is that the other icons have been changed.
