    Wrong Icon on WD EXT HDD BackupDLL file


    1909 OS 18363.779

    Good Afternoon can I get some help please (when you are able)?
    I was backing up (OC) C;/ using AOEMI onto W D EXT HDD (E Backup Partitions FFFF & GGG in preparation for a Windows 10 Clean install
    2 hours later I noticed the W D Passport LED was on but not flashing or active as Normal so I tried to find the W D Config App as > C\ >Programs > W D Program that would be the start Program for the W D EXE HDD
    I found WDApplication, Config File Manager,.EXE and I opened it thinking it was the WD App but the Choose an app from MS Store to open this program with came up and somehow I clicked UTorrent and it was showing the UT Icon I clicked and Torrent flashed up but would not open the dll file I closed it and changed to the Firefox Icon began
    How do I change it back to the correct same Icon as the other three dll config files and Icons and will it still work?
    During this I noticed the W D LED was Flashing as normal again and still is but I still cannot access it as you will see from the screen shots they tell a better story
    This is all before I can solve the W D EX HDD not being recognised as Drive (E) issue which is all I was trying to do when this happened,

    The drive or a network connection that the shortcut WD EX HDD (E), Link refers to is unavailable. Make sure that the disc is properly inserted or the network resource is available, and then try again

    Is it possible that the WD drive E\) has somehow become O C\ ?

    Is it Possible that the Desktop Shortcut to E has changed somehow and that why it cannot find the Path to the WD EX HDD
    This brings me back to trying to find the WD App in the first place in Programs?

    Your help would be greatly appreciated, Regards Wrong Icon on WD EXT HDD BackupDLL file :eek::huh:

    Wrong Icon on WD EXT HDD BackupDLL file

    Version 1909 OS 18363.815
    Thanks for the quick reply I will try and send ALL attachments as JPEG instead of PNG?? Could that be why you cannot see the Attachments?*Confused
    The trouble I have now is I cannot Identify wich File I altered to file Type on, the more could it somehow be the fault of the Desktop Shortcut I have been using since Installing the W D EX HDD the more I see all this the more I think it is not WD EX HDD E;\\ FFFF, GGG itself as such that was the original Shortcut path to that Drive but I cannot find the original
    Path to open W D from programs or another Shortcut is it in Programs or APPS Cheers

    Are you trying to get the ICON of the Drive to show in File Manager/Explorer?
    Typically, the name and/or Icon can be either edited in the Registry or just as simple as putting certain info in the Autorun.ini file and provide a path to the icon file.


    [Autorun]
    Icon=path to your file/yourIconFile.ico
    Label=WD Drive
