recently I ran Mamu's add icons to system batch file for mame icons. I wasn't satified with the results so I was going to do a system restore. Then I learned system restore was turned off "which I turn off when I defrag then turn back on when completed". Now I can't figuere out how to remove it. I'm not very good with cmd. or batch files so any help would be greatly appreciated
You just delete the batch file if you want to remove a batch file, there's no need whatsoever to go inside the registry.
This batch file changed the registry. I deleted the original one after executing it but the icons are still the same.
Try this tutorial - File Extension Icon - Change Default Icon
In addition a system restore will restore the registry to a previous state so it may be worth considering if all else fails :)
System Restore

I think he means he hasn't got any shadow copies.Then I learned system restore was turned off
I've tried everything I can think of cleared and rebuilt icon cache, used Ragnarok win7 orig iconpack, and ran sfc /scannow. Nothing has worked. Filestypeman shows .ico Type Name as Batfile and Description as Windows Batch File. I haven't found any system effects just within MAME itself so I guess I'll just deal with it as it is and chaulk it up as a learning experience. Thank everyone for trying to help and if I find a fix I'll make sure I post so someone else may benefit. Thanks again
What file type are you referring to?
It looks like it deletes the originals when it replaces them. A reinstall of Mame may well fix this.Code:@echo off if "%1&"=="&" goto end2 if "%1"=="n" goto naomi if "%1"=="ng" goto naomig if "%1"=="n2" goto naomi2 if "%1"=="t" goto triforce if "%1"=="nc" goto namcops2 if "%1"=="mech" goto mechs if "%1"=="m2" goto model2 if "%1"=="m3" goto model3 if "%1"=="rem" goto M32UIrem if "%1"=="m4" goto m4 if "%2&"=="&" goto nonwork goto copy :M32UIrem echo ------------- REMOVE MAME32 UI icons ------------- echo This will delete all MAME32UI flashy squared icons echo and replace a few ones with MAMu_'s icons... echo (roms.ico, clone.ico and warning.ico) echo -------------------------------------------------- echo Any key to continue, Ctrl-C to cancel echo -------------------------------------------------- pause del clone.ico copy clone2.ico clone.ico del cpu.ico del cust1.ico del cust2.ico del custom.ico del foldavail.ico del folder.ico del foldmanu.ico del foldopen.ico del foldsrc.ico del foldunav.ico del foldyear.ico del golden.ico del harddisk.ico del horz.ico del lightgun.ico del manufact.ico del neo-geo.ico del nonwork.ico del noroms.ico del roms.ico copy roms2.ico roms.ico del sound.ico del snd.ico del source.ico del stereo.ico del unknown.ico copy unknown2.ico unknown.ico del vert.ico del warning.ico copy warning2.ico warning.ico del working.ico del year.ico echo -------------------------------------------------- echo default non working, missing parent icon and echo missing clone icon have been replaced with MAMu_'s echo -------------------------------------------------- pause goto end :mechs copy zzz_mechanical.ico %2.ico echo zzz_mechanical.ico copied to %2.ico goto end :nonwork copy zzz_mame.ico %1.ico echo zzz_mame.ico copied to %1.ico goto end :m4 copy m4tst.ico %1.ico echo m4tst.ico copied to %1.ico goto end :naomi if "%2&"=="&" goto end copy naomi.ico %2.ico echo naomi.ico copied to %2.ico goto end :naomig if "%2&"=="&" goto end copy naomigd.ico %2.ico echo naomigd.ico copied to %2.ico goto end :naomi2 if "%2&"=="&" goto end copy naomi2.ico %2.ico echo naomi2.ico copied to %2.ico goto end :namcops2 if "%2&"=="&" goto end copy namcops2.ico %2.ico echo namcops2.ico copied to %2.ico goto end :triforce if "%2&"=="&" goto end copy triforce.ico %2.ico echo triforce.ico copied to %2.ico goto end :model2 if "%2&"=="&" goto end copy model2.ico %2.ico echo model2.ico copied to %2.ico goto end :model3 if "%2&"=="&" goto end copy model3.ico %2.ico echo model3.ico copied to %2.ico goto end :copy copy %1.ico %2.ico goto end :end2 echo --------------------------------------- echo MAMu_'s icons copy tool v 0.02 echo --------------------------------------- @echo off echo !
