hard disk icons

[david.t]

Oh dear, what a mess this thread is.
I do not need any help. I am quite happy with xyplorer 14.3.
I was merely pointing out that versions above that do not work for me as I want them to.
Tried v.16 also.
This is my last post - thanks for your suggestions.

On a related note, I'd like to change the HDD icons when viewing the "This PC" window.

However, since I like to keep things portable, I'm looking for a way to do it within xyPlorer without changing the registry.

Anyone know how I might make this happen?

I'm essentially trying to do something similar to the Customize File Icons, but for a hdd. It might look like this under similar syntax...

Code: Select all

# For a HDD on "This PC"
C:\><xyicons>c_drive.ico

The CFI entry just needs to be like this:

C:\>c_drive.ico

assuming the icon is already in <xyicons> (You were missing a backslash or your example entry would work too)

Dang, so close! Your example worked perfectly and I just noticed I can do folders in the same manner. Thank you!

Code: Select all

# Changing HDD icons on "This PC"
C:\><xyicons>\c_hdd.ico
*:\><xyicons>\hdd.ico

# Changing individual folder icons
*\Downloads\><xyicons>\downloads_folder.ico
