Uninstalled...still seeing Gray Gloss icons in some directory structures...

Friday, August 28, 2009 by Orion | Discussion: MyColors

I tried the My Colors Gray Gloss theme.  I changed it back to default and uninstalled.  Now some of my folder icons in some directory structures are still using the Gray Gloss icons.  Any help getting my icons back to the Vista default would be much apreciated.

 

Thanks,

Bob

Try opening Mycolors, go to the Settings tab, and select the Rebuild Icon Cache button.

You can also try the following fix which is listed as a blank icon fix, but also works for stuck icons:

Download the "Blank Icons Fix" for your platform (32 or 64 bit) and run it.  Make sure to right click and run as admin if you're using Windows Vista.

I already tried to rebuild the icon cache.

 

I did solve the problem.  I reinstalled impulse, reinstalled MyColors, applied the Gray Gloss theme, applied back to Windows Aero, then uninstalled everything again.
