Some file associations icons do not show

Post by kr00bi »

Some file associations icons do not show in XYplorer but they do show in Windows File explorer.

I tried to View + Caches + Refresh Icons but without success.
I have that behaviour on 2 computers.

Are there any settings/cache... to change/clear?
C:\Users\krz\AppData\Roaming\XYplorer\Icons\ is empty

Same here, it seems that Catia registers the icons for .CatPart differently than for the rest of its extensions.
Don't know though how M$ manages to display them

and if I define customized icons:

Then the icons shows wrong, they show icon of *.ico associated app. That I would call a bug then.

23.10.0009 still looks the same on my system.
No CFI defined though.

This can only mean that Affinity is not installed correctly. MS advises vendors to install their applications in both the 32-bit and 64-bit branches of the registry.
