Then after that not only did my icons screw up my computer wouldn't boot anymore. Turns out it was also the cause of my problems too. Using IconPackager fixed my problmes! Great suggestion. As 16-bits is now totally abandoned in Windows 64-bits, I don't think there is much point in reporting it to Microsoft. Apparently the 16-bits cmd.exe doesn't accept icon changes. I think this is some weird effect of 16-bits emulation on Windows. This time the icon-change worked, but the program didn't ! My conclusion is that the 32-bits cmd.exe cannot run these programs. That's why it's impossible to set their icon.Īs another experiment, I created a shortcut to cmd.exe, then modified it to add the parameters of "-k ". Properties of such an icon has the same tabs as the command prompt (cmd), so I think the white page icon is a generic cmd prompt, and Windows treats these as shortcuts to cmd rather than themselves. I tried it, and the same behavior is on Vista. Uncheck "Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)". Options -> View tab, and select "Show hidden files, folders and drives", and From Fix Blank or White Shortcut Icons on Desktop.
