Font Change

This is a pretty basic question that I can not seem to find a very basic answer to. When changing the font in the "Icons" menu under "Personalize" it changes Windows Media Player's font along with the File Location Bar's font as well. Is is possible to change the Icon font without changing the WMP or File Locations Bar Fonts?

Thanks in Advance

Hello Lollies,

Not sure what you mean by the "File Locations Bar" from this location. Which desktop icon are you changing the icon on?

Desktop Icons

Re: Font Change

Hey Brink,

Sorry I though "File Locations Bar" was a bit vague. I was/have been changing the font to all the icons on my desktop.

By "File Location Bar" I meant the bar at the top of the folder where it tells you the path of the folder in which you are currently viewing. If that makes sense? Wasn't sure what to call it at the time but I was addressing changing the font not the icons.

I was wondering how to change ONLY the font on the names to the desktop icons. Where as when I changed the font to the desktop icons it also changed the menu font, windows media player font, etc...

Thanks

Lollies,

I do not think that you can change just the fonts for the desktop icon names. You might see if there is a item listed here that may get you close.
