Post subject:	Refresh icon (Manual folder icon)
hi, all. I was wondering: is it possible to add a "refresh" feature to classic shell? My reason is because I would like to change all the folder icons together by highlighting all in "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs", right-click on properties, customize, and change icon in folder icons. So i was wondering if i could do this myself (manually)? What do y'all think? My start menu currently looks like this (see picture). If not the simple method above, does anyone know how I may change the icons in this current system? Best, KayT Attachments: Start Menu Ugliness.gif [596.81 KiB] Downloaded 265 times

Are you saying that you changed the icon of a folder but the start menu still shows the old icon?

yes, ivo. so, that's why i am asking for a "right-click and refresh" for classic shell -- and maybe an auto-refresh at start-up, if possible.

It should work automatically. If it doesn't, clear the icon cache: Right-click on the start button and select Exit Go to the folder %LOCALAPPDATA%\ClassicShell Delete the file DataCache.db Log off, log in Let me know if that fixes it.
