icon missing in shortcut and exe from xp
I have dual boot xp and win7. I have a folder containing some exe and another folder with shortcut pointing to the corresponding exe in the first one. In xp, the icons are shown normally in both folders. In win7, only a generic icon is used in both folders. Here is the screen extracts.
I tried the change icon in the properties, but there is no icon displayed in win7. I tried to remove the icon cache as mentioned in other threads here, but couldn't fix the problem. I tried this on both x64 and x32 system, still the same problem. I tried to use icon extractor software and it said no icon found from both exe and shortcut when running in win7.
Appreciate any info/suggestion to fix the problem.
