Hi,
My icons 'My Computer, recycle bin and My Network Places' are changed to what looks like a text file icon. The other icons are fine.
I've looked and I don't have the ShellIcon folder that I can delete.
Any way to get these icons back to normal appearance?
Thanks

Hopefully my advice will help you...Please post back with your results....thanks
