Solved Trying to Change back my windows 7 Icons back to default

Rawad · Jan 7, 2011

Alright Guys I installed Iconpackager the latest version. I wanted to change my icons to something else so I did that. Now when I wanted to change them back to default I selected the windows default icons but when I did that all the icons were windows vista. If anyone knows my problem please let me know. I will post a picture so I make more sense

those are not the only icons that need to be changed. It's all windows vista icons.

Ok, that will sometimes fix any customizations that are made by hand, but as this is a program it probably didn't work the same way. Let me look into more options.

Am I making any sense, I don't want to give you a hard time man.

How about this: Browsing deviantART

that's just part of icon packager. It's not the default icons.

Not a problem

Ok, I'm downloading IconPackager to see if I can find anything

Ok, after all these posts I think you actually had it right in the first place but they fooled you with their picture.

The 'Windows Defualt' option changed my icons back to the default ones for Windows 7 (even though it shows a picture of vista in the screen). Do you have any icons that look like Vista or are you basing it off of the picture of Vista in IconPackager?

Rawad · Jan 7, 2011

I have the vista Icons. I tried to use disk cleanup because last time I did that it worked but for some reason it isn't working anymore which is quite strange . I will show you a picture. I am getting confused which icon is which.

Follow this tutorial: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/262-control-panel-view-category-icons.html

And then compare images on your PC with the ones in the tutorial to see if it's fixed

Still not working?!

I want to get this solved, lol.

Did you compare the icons in the control panel?

Rawad · Jan 7, 2011

yeah it is working but you see when I drag some files to desktop look how it looks. That isnt how windows 7 icons look.

Hmm... I'm quite surprised nobody else has jumped in on this thread.

Maybe you could try a system restore to a point before you installed IconPackager?
