Windows 10: Control Panel Applets (Category View)

Hello All,

I was just wondering if anyone knows where or how I can get hold of the CLSID (GUIDs) for the Control Panel Applets in Category View in the image below:





Hope to hear from you soon.

Thank you.

My apologies, Brink but I still do not get it.

The steps for both options are identical, the only difference is the location of the desired icons will need to be accessible for all users for Option 2. That's it.

Moreover, both the Mail and Flash Player (32-bit) applets are not listed in the list of Control Panel items for both options.

Hi Guys,

Does anyone know the GUIDs for the Control Panel (Category View) applets:





I'm trying to customise these icons without using a third party software.

Appreciate any advise / guidance.

Thank you both for your reply.

However Brink, I don't quite understand the tutorial. It says:





How does that help me detect the GUID key of the applets, because doing what that tutorial says will only create a key under CLSID with the name of the applet, and not detect the applet's GUID.

I don't get it.

Andrew
