Icon Packager will not change the htm or html icons

Published on July 16, 2004 By lynnyf In Stardock Software

Should I unload Iconpackager and reinstall it or are there less drastic measures I can take. Just these two icons are the only ones that will not change.

I have another question before I discovered Iconpackager I would go up under Tools go to Folder options and change the icons that way. Iconpackager overrides those icon changes. I am wondering if the problem stems from changing the icons in the folder options long before I bought iconpackager. What would happen if I returned everything to default under the folder options? Would I have to redo the iconpackage I currently am using?

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I think (not sure) that it depends on which icons are included in the IP package. Which IP skin are you using? I myself am using Gant right now, and not every icon type is skinned. It looks like my HTML files are skinned though. I just checked, and my .css files are not skinned, those files are associated with my Dreamweaver program, so they have a different icon. Gant probably didn't have an icon for .css files.

As for individual icons, you could try turning off IP temporarily, then go change those icons back to default, then turn on IP again.

I usually find a replacement icon if there isn't one in the package.

This is most likely why they're not changing. IP never changes the icons I have set for certain folders. (thank goodness)
Resetting yours to default can't hurt anything. The worst that can happen is you'll need to reapply the IconPackage.

well, iconpackager changes htm icons, but it doesnt seem to be able to handle htmls,no matter how hard u try (or maybe it was the other way around, i dont remember)
also, sometimes iconpackager confuses the icons of different file types ans switches them, so you might have to right click on the specific file, icon tab, and change it manually there.

also, does anyone know what happened to changing briefcase icons?
