    All icons for my files are missing in File Exporer


    While trying to free up space on my windows 10 pc, I clicked something in settings that would clean up "unnecessary" files. Now I can't see what any of my files are bc I don't really name them, usually I just go off of what the pic is. Can anyone help me restore the icons?

    opening .dds files with gimp

    Simply, HOW? I got the DDS plugin but the POS wont open DDS files still. Can someone give me a step-by-step rundown of how to install the DDS plugin for gimp so I know if I'm missing something?

    Appended icon in some files in Win7

    Can't find it in the net

    Not sure what to call it to even search for it.

    If i make small tiles, the icon changes to a "setup" kind of one you see in .msi extensions.


    I have been cleaning PC of slack and moving files around, I have been also trying to decode these Fraps movies, i use TeraCopy, i remember i moved 20 fraps files from C: to D: in another folder for fraps movies, i've made up my mind in the middle and skipped ... i thought the files would be intact, seems they are, but this icon appeared after that.

    But i have no idea why these icons appear in files that were generated in encoded files, by VidEncoder.

    Feels like it's some symbolic link or network icon, i do have hardlink extension installed but no idea what is going on here.


    I also have FileMenuTools installed, but i still didn't use it this session. Also i've checked folders and files for sharing and permissions and no it's not shared either, wtf...
