| − | '''Sample case:'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | When I turned on my computer today, I noticed that my folders did not show their icons. They did work when I selected/opened them, but all their icons are lost.

| − | '''Cause:'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | Sometimes icons can become corrupt because the section of the registry that handles them, gets full.

| − | # Download and install tweakui from Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/Downloads/powertoys/Xppowertoys.mspx | |
