redsox Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Wondering if someone could help me out. For some reason, the icon representing C: drive doesn't show up. I usually right click and go to properties and click on change icon to change the icon but I can't seem to find that option for my C: drive. I have a feeling I have to go into regedit and change something inside of there but I have never played around with it and frankly I am kind of scared that I might mess up something big. Here is a screenshot of how it looks. http://img1.imagefuse.com/anon/11681419252.jpg Thank you very much for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redsox Posted January 7, 2007 Author Share Posted January 7, 2007 I figured the change icon option would only be available for shortcuts but I thought there would be an option to edit the icon for drives by going into regedit and modifying it there. But the thing is I have no clue as to how to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redsox Posted January 7, 2007 Author Share Posted January 7, 2007 Thanks for the link. I was able to download it but I am having problems trying to change the icon. It says that I need to register the software for me to change the icon of my C: drive. How were you able to change it? Thanks for the help.

brutushayesosu Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 I know I never registered it. Its been over a year since Ive messed around with the icons so I can't really remember what I did to get it to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsox Posted January 7, 2007 Author Share Posted January 7, 2007 Nevermind. I was able to change the icon by going into regedit. Took a chance and it worked out fine. Thank you for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
