SiMoNsAyS Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 you can use a batch (.cmd) file this way:REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\.bmp\DefaultIcon" /VE /D "path\bmpfile.ico" /Fsome extensions will link you to sub-classes, there's plenty of info on this same forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kudos Posted May 3, 2006 Author Share Posted May 3, 2006 i guess something's wrong... that code works with extensions not yet registered (i tried .zzz and it works), but not with the other extensions (jpg, gif, mp3)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XPero Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 It works also for mp3 and so. The help Symonsays gave you is right.Also, you can look for "mp3file", and you will see another "defaulticon" entry which you can edit. I do that in XPize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiMoNsAyS Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 as i already said some extensions are associated with sub-classes. for example, if winamp is installed .mp3 files are associated to Winamp.file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
