Short answer:
Tools -> Custom File Icons...


Slightly longer answer:
Call the above mentioned menu item (or type ::#605 into the adress bar) to call up the "Custom File Icon" Window.

Choose "New" and add:

Code: Select all

jpg>[full adress to ico file or any other possible ico source]

Defined it as you said but it's not working

Then show the definition you’ve used?

[denver]

jpg>[D:\sync\exe\gen icons\star-01.ico]

[highend]

Remove the square brackets^^

[denver]

then It's applying a wrong icon which I don't even have,many thx for help

[denver]

Edit:

I observed that whatever app is used for ico file in Default apps>choose default apps by file type, that app's icon is getting applied

Reset your ico filetype association in Windows Settings to default.

[denver]

there is no option to reset to the default,what app should I select for ico file type in settings

[jupe]

Paint

[denver]

I even tried that still it's the same.

Make sure to undo your previous CFA CFI entry.

[denver]

To make this work I didn't used the CFA but used CFI,what do you mean by undo,what should I do in the CFI setting

[jupe]

Whoops I meant CFI, either uncheck your entry to get back to default behavior or change it without the brackets so it is like this:

jpg>D:\sync\exe\gen icons\star-01.ico

Make sure you try restarting XY if you still see the wrong icon since you reset file assoc.
