Hi Claustrawberry,

Sorry, I have not found the Mouse icon yet.

I like the Mighty Mouse idea though.

Re: Control Panel Icons

Hay Shawn, have you havd any luck in finding how to change the "View 32-bit Control Panel Items" icon? For some strange reason, when I changed the control panel Icon using your tutorial, the one in the start menu didn't change, all the other ones did, including the one on the desktop, just the start menu one and the 32-bit didn't change. Perhaps windows might be using a different registry key indicating the location of the icon. Got any clues where I could find it?

Please reply ASAP

Re: Control Panel Icons

yes it sure is handy, and by the way another way you could tryfinding the location of the icons is by going to the control panel in classic view, and right click on the icon you want to change and select create short-cut, when you create the shortcut, right cilck on it and select properties, then try changing the icon and you will be shown the current location of the icon
