Windows 10: Various Folders' Default Icon Value Data in Registry Editor

Hi Guys,

I hope I've posted this in the correct channel.

Basically, I'm after the default icon's value data for four folders in the registry editor. I stupidly removed them without copying them down whilst customising their icons. For example, Control Panel has the following CLSID and Default Icon Value Data:

Control Panel 5399E694-6CE5-4D6C-8FCE-1D8870FDCBA0 %SystemRoot%\system32\imageres.dll,-27

The folders in question are:

Folders CLSID Default Icon's Value Data
Desktop folder {B4BFCC3A-DB2C-424C-B029-7FE99A87C641}
Documents folder {A8CDFF1C-4878-43be-B5FD-F8091C1C60D0}
Downloads folder {374DE290-123F-4565-9164-39C4925E467B}
Pictures folder {3ADD1653-EB32-4cb0-BBD7-DFA0ABB5ACCA}
Appreciate your help on this.

Thank you,
Andrew

Moved the Vidoes folder in the wrong location

Hi Vessko, we will need to edit the Registry to fix this . . .

Click your Start Button, type regedit and hit Enter to open the Registry Editor

Navigate to this Key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders

On the right hand side, double click 'My Video'

Set Value Data to (copy and paste this):

%USERPROFILE%\Videos

Click OK, and close the Registry Editor

Restart your PC

Your videos folder will be back in its default location - C:\Users\MyUsername\Videos

That's It!

 

NumLock

Click your Start Button, type regedit and hit enter

This will open the Registry Editor

Navigate to this key (folder) on the left:

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Keyboard

In the right habd pane find InitialKeyboardIndicators

Double click that

Set its value to 80000002

Save and Exit the Registry Editor

Restart your System

If after a restart your Numlock key is not enabled, set that registry value to: 2147483650

 

Default icon for the first 3 in the order of your list from my Win10 Pro 64-bit:

%SystemRoot%\system32\imageres.dll,-183

%SystemRoot%\system32\imageres.dll,-112

%SystemRoot%\system32\imageres.dll,-184

The 4th is giving my regedit fits, have to look into that.

EDIT: cleaned up my Registry and here is the 4th item:

%SystemRoot%\system32\imageres.dll,-113

 

Hello Berton,

Thank you very much.

Really appreciate it.

You're welcome, glad to have helped.

 

Hey Berton,

Any chance you can help me out with two more:

Quick Access {679f85cb-0220-4080-b29b-5540cc05aab6}

My Documents {450D8FBA-AD25-11D0-98A8-0800361B1103}
I have the same system specs as your machine (Windows 10 64-bit).

Thank you, Berton.


Regards,
Andrew
