IconPackager Troubles
Icons keep changing on me...
Friday, June 24, 2011 by xinh2 | Discussion: Object Desktop
I have created an iconpackage. Painstakingly. Several times now in fact. I get it the way I want it, save it, ZIP it up and can install it and load it. All is well. Until I leave it alone for a bit. Then the icons just change on me for no apparent reason. Specifically the CONTROL PANEL icons are getting reset to the Windows default ones and several file types are getting messed up. I am at my wits end trying to figure out if this is user error or what. Can anyone shed any light on what I might be doing wrong or a way to stop this from happening? It is really quite maddening
Iconpackager version is: 5.10
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit

Yeah...Iconpackger doesn't play nice with Windows 7.

I am in contact with support about exactly this issue, it seems I have to provide screenshots and a further explanation (whatever is unclear about IP messing up especially the filetype icons)). Will do that next week.

OK, while that is disappointing at least I know it isn't my doing something wrong. Thanks everyone!

Open the builder once, put all your icons in at once, save it. That's all you can do. The fact that they don't 'stick' is an issue that has been going on for quite some time. You're not doing anything wrong.
