HTM, HTML, MHT Files' Icon Disappeared!

[Sunita Kapoor]

Hi,

How is everybody doing?

Since last week I found that the standard icons assigned to HTM and HTML, as
well as MHT, files stored on on of my computers disappeared. It was replaced
by the no-frills default icon.

I cannot get the standard icons back even by going into Folder Options >
File Types > and then on any of the options: Change or Advanced. Even if I
delete the file types and reinstate them anew, I cannot get the icons to
work!! Even though the icons do show up in the choice windows.

I did a SFC/ Scannow to repair any corrup file(s) but that did not work too,
after it was over!

I also uninstalled Netscape Navigator 7 in case it had anything to do with
the issue. But not so.

I also check for viruses, spyware and registry checks - nothing worked!!!

Any illumination would be most appreciated.

Thanks a lot in anticipation.

Everybody have a great day.

Click Start | Run | type "regsvr32 /i mshtml"

For .mht files, open Registry Editor and goto:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\mhtmlfile\DefaultIcon

Set the value for "default" (right side) to "C:\Program Files\Internet
Explorer\iexplore.exe,22"

Doug, I'm not the person facing this problem.

Thanks for pointing that out Kelly and I will. FYI - If you are the
host-author of Kelly's Korner, I had sent him your posted fix. Now that I
have your attention.....your site and a couple others are the best things
posted out in cyberland for XP users. Actually allot of the info is
applicable across all flavors of Windows. Thanks for your efforts.
Cheers Doug
