Medium and large folder icons will not revert to original Win 7 icons using IconPackager 4 & 5
Friday, October 30, 2009 by Mistral1 | Discussion: Icons
Can anyone help with this issue as small folder icons are ok?
.
EDIT: The O/S is Win 7 ultimate retail, IP has been tried with 4 and 5 and rebooted after each install
The Large and medium folder icons allways remain in the custom state from the last custom package installed after reverting back to Windows default.
Thanks in advance ![]()

This will not work unless you manually choose the live folder icons. Problem is the icons for the live folders will be blank. Double click them and it will show you the defaults. Choose the icon and then apply.
Set your icons like the ones shown in the picture below and you'll be back to normal.

Thanks for the reply, the ones in the folder are themed icons , restore to default does nothing the live folders are all stuck as themed, I have copied a images.dll file off another win 7 PC and placed it on my D drive and pointed the effected icons to that file which gets me around the problem with your help , thanks.

In IconPackager, go to the "Icons and Cursors" tab. Then select "Restore Default Icon" for whichever icons you wish to return to default.
