Soukyuu Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) I'm having weird problems with folder icons.Desktop.ini contains the following:[.ShellClassInfo]IconResource=c41af100-6b25-4a2d-91ac-815a04daf3ea.ico,0The corresponding icon is present in the folder - but the folder icon stays default. The funny thing is, setting the icon with a program (folderhighlight) works, copying the folder anywhere keeps the icon as expected. However, copying the working set of desktop.ini+.ico to another folder doesn't make it display the icon.What am I missing? I tried clearing iconcache.db in my appdata and rebooting, but no change.edit: I really hate it when I find the answer right after asking for help...As stated here, you have to set attrib +s foldername for any folder you want the desktop.ini to work with.edit2: Actually, attrib +r foldername is enough. Interesting requirement. Edited January 27, 2014 by Soukyuu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
