I have no system restore point

Help me please..............Thanks

[Bads]

I just reinstall the SP2 and my icons are still missing

[Bads]

Nobody knows

If I check with Icon Packager, all my icons are there but I can't restore them

Maybe this will help you

Code:

But on my system I cann't find the ShellIconCache

Maybe it has something to do with IconPackager

When I rightclick on an .exe file ,properties, I can Rebuild Icon Cache

Download tweak UI. Then repair and then repair icons.

Hi Bads has War said downlpoad tweak UI from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...powertoys.mspx
and use the repair icon cache

You might also have lost the .ico file Association wich is preventing to show the icon files

To fix that i attached a reg key to restore the .ico file Association to the original state in window xp

Let me know if the 2 above solution can fix your problem.

Thanks guys

I was without my PC for 3 days

Tring to restore a backup etc...........

I have to disconnect 2 HD before restoring my image <_< A really bad weekend

Now I will try your recommandations for the next time :P

[Bads]

Just lost them again and none of the method are working

I have an old image backup. Is there a file or anything that I can restore for repairing my icons ?

[Bads]

I try tweakui and try to import the reg key to restore the .ico file Association to the original state in window xp but nothing is working

This happend again when I was trying to see the propertie of a file

All the .exe icons are gone Only these ones

So you did try this?

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.ico]
@="icofile"
"PerceivedType"="image"
"Content Type"="image/x-icon"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.ico\OpenWithList]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.ico\PersistentHandler]
@="{098f2470-bae0-11cd-b579-08002b30bfeb}"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\icofile]
@="Icon"
"ImageOptionFlags"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\icofile\DefaultIcon]
@="%1"
