Computer Usage Columns - Tip Off Changing common icons
You can change many of the common Windows icons. Start Regedit and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ explorer \ Shell Icons. The default icons are numbered in the right panel from 0-40. Double-click on the number of the particular icon you want to change (see the chart below). Enter the name of the icon file you want to use followed by the number of the icon in that file (the numbering starts with zero). If you use a single .ICO file, it should be followed by a 0. For instance, filename.dll,4: This would actually be the 5th icon since it starts with 0. Make sure you delete the hidden file C:\WINDOWS\SHELLICONCACHE. 0-13 Drive and Application Icons 0 - To change the Unknown Application Icon 2 - To change the Default Application Icon 3 - To change the Closed Folder Icon 4 - To change the Open Folder Icon 5 - To change the 5 1/4" Floppy Icon 6 - To change the 3 1/2" Floppy Icon 7 - To change the Removable Disk Icon 8 - To change the Hard Drive Icon 9 - To change the Network Drive Online Icon 10 - To change the Network Drive Offline Icon 11 - To change the CD Drive Icon 12 - To change the Ramdrive Icon 13 - To change the Entire Network Icon 19-27 Are the Start Menu Icons 19 - To change the Programs Icon 20 - To change the Documents Icon 21 - To change the Settings Icon 22 - To change the Find Icon 23 - To change the Help Icon 24 - To change the Run Icon 27 - To change the Shutdown Icon Other Icons 33 - To change the DUN Folder Icon 34 - To change the Desktop Icon 35 - To change the Control Panel Icon 37 - To change the Printer Folder Icon 40 - To change the Audio CD Icon 43 - To change the Favorites Icon 44 - To change the Logoff Icon Compiled by C.
