Hard Disk Drive Icons in "My Computer" folder changed

[Guest]

The Hard Disk Drive Icons in the "My computer" folder changed from an XP look
and feel to a Win 98 look and feel. I right clicked on the Icon but I cannot
change from there. Does anyone know how to change back the icons?

Open File Explorer on My computer. Right click on the drive in the right
hand pane, and *read* the options available to you.

Thanks for responding, but I am still not able to change the look and feel of the Icon back to Win98. The Icon physically looks like the Wi98 icon.

are you looking in the right place for the icon? It should be in the
Shell32.dll file

Try this - My Computer>>Tools>>Folder Options>>General Tab/Tasks - "Show
common tasks in folders."
I'm not sure if that is what you are looking for but try it and see.

You should try going to properties of the desktop and that will help you a lot
