Vista - how to change icons of a group of files at once?

10-13-2007

Hi,

I have one question, how to change the icons of a group of shortcuts at
once? I tried to hilite several shortcuts open properties dialog, there's no
change icon button there. The button only appear if I right click on a
single file.

Thanks

I'm 99.9% sure you can only change a single file at a time.

Granted, it's not what you would expect in a pure object-oriented interface;
but it's how Explorer works.
