Hi, can anyone help me work out how to change the icon in the image?
normally when you select a file, it shows the icon for the program associated with it, for example, if i click a text file, a wee notepad++ icon shows.
But, if i click on a executable, i get the crappy old style exe icon, instead of the newer exe icon.
I know there is a simple fix out there somewhere, as i did it on a previous Win7 installation, but for the life of me, i can't find it again.
Its not a icon cache issue,
I think i remember it being a reg tweak of some sort i found on Ghacks, but don't hold me to that.
Should be..
But currently..
