Iconpackager for Windows 10 ???
Sunday, February 21, 2016 by christianbearslyclark | Discussion: OS Customization
ADMIN EDIT : IconPackager 10 is now available from www.iconzone.com and supports Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and 10.
I am very sure that some people have been asking in the past ..........
...... BUT .... would Stardock be Updating Iconpackager for Windows 10?
I really HATE Windows icons since day one LOL
Plus I want to use the icons to match with my Windowblinds 10 themes.

im not into fences and all that other stuff that just clutters up the screen, sure it looks pretty, but it's not for me.... all i want and use is iconpackager windowblinds and cursorfx.... and when i update to windows 10 and am not able to use these 3 programs with windows 10... then i won't use any of them at all...
thus stardock losing more business.... as i tend to buy a whole lot of premium skins and cursors and iconpackages.... (but im sure stardock really doesn't give a crap about what the people want anyways...)

Double click the screen, it all goes away. No ugly icons to look at.
To each his own....

so basically are you saying that they will not be making iconpackager compatible with windows 10? or is that still an unknown?
and also i have never tried that fences app you said you use.... i take it i can download a trial of it and check it out for a while right? maybe if i like it i will buy it....
but still iconpackager should be a must have also.....

There have been discussions about a future IP release but nothing concrete to announce right now.

I think there is a trial of Fences. But it won't be the beta version, which works well on 10. The last full release works pretty well on 10 for me as well.
When you get it installed, you can double click the desktop and hide all Fences/icons. Double click to bring them back. That way, no ugly icons on your screen. I like to look at a nice wallpaper. icons are only needed until you click one.

If you like a clean, uncluttered desktop, then Fences is for you. It's a great way to keep things tidy and organized. (Plus, it gets updated on a fairly regular basis or as needed.)

nice, am going to check it out now...... but also please please work on iconpackager too..

The Windows 10 icons aren't at all bad, and I really pay no attention to how they look anymore.
Fences is one of my most favorite apps. Lower the opacity and it's perfect on the desktop.

Lets not turn this into another Windows 10 paranoia hate thread. The question about IconPackager was asked and answered.
I am using IconPackager 4.0 x 64 in Windows 10 with no problem at all. However, it must be run in compatibility mode for Windows 7. The later version for Windows 8 would not run for me at all but this one works perfectly. I am also using Cursor FX with no problem.
I do have a wish list though. I would love a new version of Logon Studio. I am currently using another version but would much prefer to use one from Stardock and happy to pay for it.

OMG !!!!! IconPackager 4.0 DOES WORK !!!!! I have Google for it.
Now .... I have my devoted and loving Delta icons with Ubuntu WB theme !!!
It does NOT make sense that IconPackager 5 does NOT work with Windows 10 SMh

DO NOT INSTALL ANY VERSION OF ICONPACKAGER ON WINDOWS 10.
The older versions are not blocking install as they are not aware of Windows 10
If you uninstall your OS is liable to break!!!!

What do you mean ?

He means don't install Icon Packager on Windows 10. It will mess up your OS, and uninstalling would be even worse. Wait until Stardock updates it, if they do.

I guess it's too late for that LOL
I already installed and unstalled IconPackager.
Right now, I am working with CustomizerGod
.... well .... let's see ... if my Windows 10 will be alright LOL
the only big applications are just Adobe. So I will be just fine if I have to reset my PC ..... sooner or later

am i the only one here who doesn't see the point in using windowblinds or any other stardock product for that matter if i can't use iconpackager with windows 10?
i mean in the world of skinning/ custom desktops, you either skin it all... or you leave it all stock.... can't have a sweet windowblind and cursor and whatnot
I find this very funny. Maybe even silly.
I have zero icons on my screen. I use Fences.
WindowBlinds, WindowsFX, CursorFX, Start10, Winstep.....
They all are a VAST improvement over the stock Windows 10. Even without icons being skinned. I don't get the "all or nothing" attitude.
