Recycle Bin - Fix For Custom Icons Not Refreshing

Thank you. Great work. Not sure if I will do it, don't want to mess things up but I will look into it. If I try it and it works I will let you know.

I would need the actual .ico files themselves instead. You could place them in a ZIP file, and upload them if you like. :)

Ooops sorry,I saw I couldn't send .ico files so I sent as png,didn't think 2send as .zip. Thanks again,

The icons would look better if they were 256x256 pixel Vista style icons instead of 96x96 pixel.

The Recycle Bin didn't automatically change with your icons until I did what was in the tutorial on the first page to add ,0 at the end in the registry.

Do you have the icons saved in say your Pictures library or folder?

Shawn,
WOW dude thank you so much for your hard work doing this :) How lame of me I really apologize, I had the "0" in the registryat one time but was changed after a restore but the ICON size was in fact 96 as you know. Whats really bad is when I looked in my files I had the correct size just not in correct place, I sure spent a lot of time spinning my wheels and then wasted your time on a simple lame mistake I should have seen. Again Im sorry to waste your valuable time but Im really happy to finally have this problem solved. Im sure to some it doesnt seem like much of a problem but it just annoyed me,
I often say Im smarter than the machine but in this case it was you that is smarter than the machine. I can't thank you enough.... very cool of you to help. Thanks again so much:)
With Respect,
MIKLO

That's all following Murphy's Law: "Whatever can go wrong, will go wrong."

Btw, forgotton (re-) patches :

I write down every patch and every installed program with date and location
in a simple text file, not stored on the C: drive.

So in case of restoring a backup, I can look up what patches/programs I now
had to reinstall.

Regards,
Tom.

Thanks! This worked perfectly. I now have working custom icons for my Recycle Bin which I have renamed to "Emergency Inelegance Incinerator" :P
