Changed icons in My Computer

david10 · 07-23-2008, 08:45 AM

Hi. I installed a harmless app and have noticed that it's changed my icons in my computer. Does anyone know how I get the original Vista icons back? It makes no differece to the pc as it's working fine but it's annoying the hell outta me. I have 2 partitions and both have changed.
How is this possible that a simple app can do this? Very weird.

thanks all,
dave

Hey, whats the app? and what icons have changed(e.g. is it for a specific filetype, or all icons, or all on the desktop, etc.)?

Cheers,
Jamey

My initial thought was that changing the theme back to the default should correct the problem, but I have the same questions as Jamey.

Hi. The app is Allway sync. Nothing has changed and the icons are still there. I've got it on a Win XP box too and it's ok on that.

Any more suggestions?

Thanks. Dave
