Hi,
I pretty much know how to change the icon that opens a certain file extension.
The icon for Microsoft word, the "W" is what i am use to but in my new XP
system the icon is different.
I want to change the icon but the "W" is not shown in the folder of icons
(shell32.dll).
Does any one know how I could get this most common icon (W) in there so I
can use it again?
Thanks for any help,
Akomet
