Tried running the .bat file and rebooted no help.
When using the manual cmd option it says
Could Not Find C:\Users\Myron\AppData\Local\IconCache.db

I have a "cloned" user profile that shows the icon captions just fine. I copied the existing IconCache.db from there and pasted it in under C: drive where it should be. Restarted and still nothing. Why would the captions appear in one profile and not the other?
