I thought I'd seen this question answered somewhere before, but I can't seem to find it. Anyway, I'm trying to use a program to replace all the standard windows icons (drives, folders, etc), but TLB doesn't use the replacements. I've tried several different programs to do this, such as IconPhile and Microangelo's OnDisplay, but the result is the same. Windows Explorer uses the new icons, but TLB doesn't, even after refreshing and rebooting. Am I doing something wrong?

Weather Forecast 1.0.0.0 Media Control 4.0.0.0 Volume Control 2.1.0.0
Net Monitor 1.4.0.0 Up Time 2.1.0.0 System Monitor 2.4.0.0

Turn on option Use system icon cache in the Advanced tab. This force TLB to use icons from explorer (after refresh)

Ok, I checked that box, refreshed TLB, no change. Logged off and back on, but TLB still uses the default icons for drives and folders.

Sad I'll try to find the bug.
You say IconPhile & Microangelo's OnDisplay? I've tried only with IconPackager 2.0

I've tried with IconPhile on W2K and WinXP. I've changed the icons for folders and drives. All works fine. TLB show new icons after refresh.

Can you send me setup.ini from toolbar folder? May be some other settings take effect on this?

I just tried Icon Packager, but it's the same.

Something else I've noticed that might help. If I put a new shortcut on the bar, it has the new icon, but if I create a shortcut in a menu, it has the old icon. Hope that helps.

OK I've found the way all these programs replace shell icons. In the next version I'll make support for this Smile

BTW without Use system icon cache option Wink
