if you right click the icon in explorer, select customize.. and you will see
the icon options: select large icons..
 
In Win Explorer, is there a way to make the ICONS bigger in details view?
I can make the text bigger, but can't figure how to do it for the icons.

thx

sorry I don't see any customize option.

again, this is in windows explorer, using details view.
 
Under the registry key:

"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics"

create a new REG_SZ value named "Shell Small Icon Size"

double-click the new value to edit it -- 16 is the default, 32 is the default for large icons.

You'll need to log off & back on for the change to take effect.

This setting will also affect the icon size for the pinned and MRU program lists on the XP-style
Start Menu, the Address Bar, the Common Tasks pane in Explorer, and probably other things as well :)
