Hello all
I just got Win7 Ult 64 up and running and have pretty much completely got it looking like 98.
For some time now I have been using the default Win 98 Recycle Bin icons thru several OS's as since I use small icons, this icons colors are very easy to see with my background and very recognizable to my eye.
If some don't remember, this was a tapered round can with a fliptop type lid that when it is in its full state, showed several brightly colors cans at its base.
In Win7 I have tried the icons I have saved since 98 and they work sorta but the problem is, during a empty, the icon will not refresh to empty unless I refresh the screen.
From Google searches I see this is a common problem an I have tried just about ever fix I have found but nothing has worked.
As far as the stock Win7 Icon that works just fine so I'm just guessing here, as I seemed to have researched this enough, that the Win 98 one is just not compatible and so I don't think there is any more point in trying to fix it.
Basically I was hoping that someone may have a updated version that while it comes from what ever works now, still "looks" and most importantly, "acts" like the old Win 98 bin icons.
So does anyone know of such a set of icons?
Thanks for any help
