Hello,
I have a large collection of icon files in my computer but they are no longer recognized my Windows. If I set my folder view to either Tiles, Icons, List or Details my Icons no longer show up. Rather I just get the generic icon Windows uses for files of an unknown extension.
This problem occurred after I installed Nero 7. The .ico extension got associated with Nero. After uninstalling Nero the system did not go back. How do I get Windows to associate with .ico files properly again. I tried TweakUI but it did not work.
I do not want to use any Icon organizing program, I just want to reset .ico file associations.
Note: If I customize a folder with one of the icons it is displayed properly and the icon previews are available in Thumbnail view setting. I am running Windows XP Home SP2 with all updates.
