    Folder Icon problem :(


    My folder icons in windows 7 are now really annoying, caused by a change to them on a program called Iconpackager. I try to change them back to default (in Iconpackager) and it doesnt work! I've tried deleting the iconcache and letting it rebuild, I've tried a program called WinBubble too, both with no success. I've even tried a method that apparently works: Going into regedit and deleting a few files that apparently remove the IconSkins. Still with no success. Please, I really need help!! Ive got a image of them too: (link to image in attachements) there are many more like the ones on the image, they even appear when I create a new one.... Any solution to restoring them to default? Please help someone!!!!!
