Folder Icons...Restore to default?

In my Users folder under my account name, the folders for downloads,
searches, videos, etc. display a blue icon with a picture. My folder for
Music displays the traditional yellow folder without an icon for display. Is
there anyway possible to revert this icon to the default blue icon with the
musical note and cd image? It displays perfectly fine with my other user name
on the computer. Thanks.

RE: Folder Icons...Restore to default?

Well...I seem to havesolved my own problem. I found that the folder icons are
stored in the imageres.dll file, so that is where I told my Music folder to
gather the icon from. I hope this helps other users who might have accidently
changed their icons as well.

Use WinBubble, Here. No installation is needed. It can restore each folder icon in one click.

Documents, Downloads, Pictures, Favorites, Music, Videos and Contacts Icon

Open Winbubble > Icons tab > Click "x" for restore

Easy!
