librarie tutorial, by brink, did i miss anything? Hey guys i followed the guide here Libraries Icon - Change Default Icon
And it worked great 
tho one of the icons, never changed for me, i checked and dubble checked the images and the guide still that last icon never changed for me, so i must have missed something..
Why is it that the .ico file never changed on the 3rd icon, but the 1st and the 2nd icon changed fine.
What did i miss? i really hate that 3rd icon, so damn ugly have to change it !!!! 
Thx in advance

From what I see in the tutorial you didn't miss anything, but I just woke up!
Methinks the icons for the taskbar are kept or obtained from a different folder.
if you right click the libraries icon on the taskbar and then to change icon, can you find the one you want that way? | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop System Manufacturer/Model Number Gateway DX4831e (Mid-Tower Desktop) OS Win 7 Home Premium 64bit Ver 6.1.7600 Build 7601 - SP1 CPU Intel i3 530 2.93GHz, 2933MHz 2 Cores 4 Logical Processors Motherboard Gateway H57M01 133 megahertz Memory 6GB of 1,333MHz DDR3 SDRAM Graphics Card 32MB Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD IGChip Sound Card Realtek High Definition Audio Monitor(s) Displays Gateway HX2000 20inch TFT active matrix TN Screen Resolution 1600 x 900 x 59 hertz Keyboard MS 'Natural' Standard PS/2 Enhanced 101-102 Key Mouse Gateway USB wired optical PSU 300watts.

Critical point.
When you right click the taskbar icon to change it; browse to the folder that already contains the ones you are using for the main Library. Then pick one from there.
After you rt ck on #3 you see this Quote: Windows Explorer
unpin this program from taskbar rt. ck. on windows explorer that will open up context to properties. ck on properties.
If it is the one you want, then yes, pick it, but it should be instantaneous once you click on apply. If not then restart, and see if it takes effect.

Don't forget to click on Okay after Apply......

Start where it says: Quote: Instead, let’s create new, customized icons for our taskbar. To do this easily, open the folder that contains all of your pinned icons by entering the following in the Explorer address bar: | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop System Manufacturer/Model Number Gateway DX4831e (Mid-Tower Desktop) OS Win 7 Home Premium 64bit Ver 6.1.7600 Build 7601 - SP1 CPU Intel i3 530 2.93GHz, 2933MHz 2 Cores 4 Logical Processors Motherboard Gateway H57M01 133 megahertz Memory 6GB of 1,333MHz DDR3 SDRAM Graphics Card 32MB Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD IGChip Sound Card Realtek High Definition Audio Monitor(s) Displays Gateway HX2000 20inch TFT active matrix TN Screen Resolution 1600 x 900 x 59 hertz Keyboard MS 'Natural' Standard PS/2 Enhanced 101-102 Key Mouse Gateway USB wired optical PSU 300watts.

Sure, just go up to the scales in the upper right corner of one of my posts usually the one that helped the most, and click on that. you don't have to put in a comment, but it's courtesy to do so.
Then click on I approve.
It will then show on your User CP page.
Easiest way to get there is to go to the top of the page you'll see User CP to the right of center.
