Wow! Thank you. I love these single-task freeware programs that are not bloatware! They just make Windows computing much more enjoyable. Cheers from MTL! =·)
I've used this program in the past, and it has done quite well. Now, on my new Win 11 machine I seem to be unable to get it to change the icon for a .PDF file for some reason. That has also been the case with a .TXT file. Puzzling, to say the least.
I need help because i want to change the icons for desktop, downloads, documents, pictures, music, videos, etc. but it won't let me edit a "percieved type." I need help because I was trying to change the icons of my laptop back to the windows 7 icons.
Every time I try to click browse to change the icon the app hangs and does nothing. I'm using the 64bit version. I'll try the 32bit just for the hell of it but it really sucks that I can't get it to work! I was really looking forward to using such a simple solution!!!!
hi thanks i can successfully change icon for most file types, but for some reason i cannot change the icons for google drive fs (file types (.gdoc, .gsheet). everytime i change those icons, for about 10 seconds they reset back to the original file types icons. i already tried multiple times and same thing happen. the google app file types icons keep reset back to the originals. even if i changed them into icons that are built in the google drive fs app itself. im clueless. anyone can help thanks?
i tried using both FileTypeMan and Default Program Editor to change .Gdoc and .Gsheet file type icon (google drive desktop file types). but for some reason after about 1 minute, both changed back to original icons. does anyone have a clue why?
My suggestion is, that some software in the background reverts the changes. I have not tried this with .gdoc files yet, so I can not really help you there.
Hi there, this method only changes the file icon on your windows 10 only, that means if you send it to another windows 10, the default icon of that file will now show.

I would assume that the google software monitors the registry for changes and reverts the changes back.
thank you so much!!
There used to be a way within windows.
so they removed useful feature to add spyware (recall).

what if you open a certain file type with a certain application but want the default windows icon instead?
Not sure what you mean, but thats the whole point of this application? Does this not work?

Many persons has submitted critical fault on boot when restore to original file state. Keep away from this dangerous file systems mods apps.
I know this was possible in previous version of Windows without a 3rd-party tool...
Yes, I remember that too.
I remember back when you could do this without 3rd party programs. you could just do it with windows. i think you could do it on windows 7
Yes, thats true, I do not remember if it worked still in Windows 7, but in XP it was easy to do.
Thank you !
