    Need some comp help

    Yeah first post in forever and probably my last but yeah, I need some help here





    The icons are like that on the desktop. Also in the start menu shortcuts, and every folder within folders is like that. Any idea how to fix this?

    I also looked so see if the computer icon was changed to that, and their defaults are what they normally would be.

    I'd be more concerned about those massive white boxes covering random parts of the windows.

    Also, interracial porn with a baby watching is just wrong.

    You sicko.

        Go to C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data and delete the file IconCache.db. It's a hidden file so you need to have enabled Show hidden files if you don't normally use that. Then reboot and Windows will recreate the icon cache.

        If that doesn't work, then give TweakUI > Repair icons a try.

              To restore an icon manually on Windows XP (not sure how this varies on different operating systems):

              Tools --> Folder Options --> File Types (tab) --> select the file type you want and click the Advanced button. There should be a "Change Icon..." button. You will have to navigate to the program whose icon you want to use if it's not in the default selection (the shell32.dll located in system32).

              That's just the way I know to manually change the icon of a file. Also, if you've customized the file type in some way (I believe causing it to open in another program through the use of this menu is one way), the Advanced button is replaced by a Restore button. You'd then have to restore it to its original program, change the icon, and then change your program back.
