JPG icons not updating on Vista Desktop

Post by Ramzy »

Hi guys,

Icons seem to be fine for GIF, PNG, and other file types, however the icons for JPG files are not updating.

Within programs such as Firefox and Internet explorer i can see the JPG icon just fine, Windows Explorer does not show the XnView JPG icon.

Here is an example:

I have tried rebuilding the icon cache, and re-associating XnView with JPG files, however this hasn't fixed the issue.

What can i do?

Thanks.

:) Hello !

• Two ways to change the icon :

1. In Windows >> Start >> Parameters >> Config. Panel >> Tools Menu >> Folders Options >>
[File Types] tab >> Select JPG in the list >> [Advanced] button >>> "Change Icon" (or so, it's in French here).

2. If you are using Total Commander : Files Menu >> Associate with… >> Edit type >> Change Icon

Thanks :mrgreen:

I fiddled with it for a bit and managed to get it working after multiple retries.

Thanks again :mrgreen:
