Weird Windows Problem

Name: Anonymous 2006-05-16 0:18

I have a problem 4chan,
I started up windows and when i tried to open up microsoft word i realized the icon for the program was one of those general ones, you know like when windows doesnt know what program to open the file with. As i started to look at my other programs i realized that the same thing happened with all the programs on my computer. I've never seen this happen before, help me!

thanks

Copy pasta:

When your icons go south on you and take on the night of the living dead look. Right click on the desktop and choose properties.  Then choose the effects tab then check or uncheck the show icons in all possible colors box and apply and ok it

This will cause windows to rebuild your desktop icons.
Also you might want to make sure its not checked since this greatly speeds up windows.

Just open regedt32 and change the values of various keys until the icons fix themselves.

Don't change these.
