View 3 RepliesHi everyone. I'm new to VB8 and I have been learning as much as I could. I goal is to create an application where I can drag and drop a folder and then an icon that i want the current folder icon to change to- all this for vista/W7. My goal is to create the "desktop.ini" to change the folder icon as well as have vista/W7 recognize the change.

I deleted 3 old pictures from my resource folder. When building compiler alerted me to missing resources. Stupidly i manually edited the file and all my Toolbar icons are gone. Interesting enough the menu strip text all vanished and so did my status strip text. I managed to add back the deleted lines but still the same. If i delete the toolstrip all its buttons remain. Manually deleting each control, rewriting we are talking hours and hours of work.

but I would like to display this icon into the form and I can't find the way to do it.
what i want to do, is have a user select a file. And then the program displays the icon associated with that particular file. Would this be hard to do? And if its easy, can somebody give me an idea on where to start?

View 2 RepliesIn my program, the user can select a icon for a shortcut generator. I googled "Extract icons from exe", and could only find nonworking answers to extract a single icon from an exe. I want a user to be able to select a program path and have a imagelistbox, flowlayoutpanel, or listview fill up with previews of all the icons. I want it to be similar to when you try to manual change a shortcut icon (you know that box with the exe path and the list of icons?). Is there any possible way to do this?

ive tried playing with the code moving around the folder names, making sure there capitals are correct, etc. but nothing works. it creates the file in the wrong spot.
Basically the problem i have is i have made a program that creates and installs a registry key which changes default drive icons etc.
But registry key directories need double backward slashes in the directories, e.g.
What i recieve;
C:exampleicon.ico
What i need;
C:\example\icon.ico
I was thinking sending the directory i recieve to another textbox and replacing '' with '\'. Is this possible?
