Custom Icons For File Extensions Not Working !
« on: Today at 11:56:11 »
I tried adding Custom Icons (via Configuration menu > File Type Setup > Icons) for .txt .ahk .ini .pdf (they're .ico files), but it's not showing these new updated icon entries ! Even tried closing & relaunching MC. Is it working for anyone else ? Also wondered if you could make custom icons for Folders as well ?! I'am guessing not...

Yes, it works. Folder icons can be chaged via desktop.ini files.
P.S. But MC doesn't seem to respect desktop.ini settings

MC get folder icon from Windows.. And Windows should return the icon from the desktop.ini file.. However Windows sometimes cache the icon and you might need to refresh the Windows icon cache.

@Mathias, yes, I apologize. It also works.
P.S. But after changing desktop.ini MC has to be restarted, refreshing Explorer panel is not enough.
