Drive Icon - Change

Hello Mojonba, and welcome to Seven Forums.

If rebuilding the icon cache suggested by Yowan above doesn't help, then.......

Double check to see if you have the registry location below, and that it is empty as well.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\DriveIcons

Also, check using OPTION ONE to see if you may have a autorun.inf file in the root directory of these HDDs as well.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Mojonba,

When you were looking for a autorun.inf file, did you also check the Show hidden files, folders, and drivesoption in Folder Options in case the autorun.inf file may have been hidden?

Yes hidden & os protected files are shown.

Mojonba,

Since that looks good, lets try downloading and merging the drive option in the tutorial below and restarting the computer afterwards. This will restore the default associations for drives which also includes the default icon. If something else it not changing your icon, then hopefully this may restore the default icon.

Default File Type Associations - Restore

Mojonba,

LOL, that was going to be my next suggestion to do OPTION ONE or OPTION THREE in the tutorial for a custom icon using the default icons in the imageress.dll file. :)

You're most welcome Mojonba. That's great news. :)
