Missing Media Portal configuration icon :-( (1 Viewer)

[nzdreamer55]

Hello,

I did a search of the web site and didn't find anything under the term icon that fit so here it is.

I have lost my icons for my Mediaportal config application, the TV server config application, and the uninstall media portal application. There is just the ugly windows generic icon.

How do I ge them back?

Thanks
Steve

Hi there

That's an unusual one!
Firstly double check that the shortcuts are still pointing to the correct location. For each shortcut:

1. Double click on the shortcut.
2. If the correct application loads then try the next set of instructions.
3. If the application doesn't load then wait for Windows to give up searching and click "locate".
4. Navigate to the MP/TV Server install directory and select the correct file:
- MediaPortal = MediaPortal.exe (MP directory)
- MediaPortal Configuration = Configuration.exe (MP directory)
- MediaPortal Uninstall = uninstall-mp.exe (MP directory)
- TV Server Configuration = SetupTv.exe (TV Server directory)
- TV Server Uninstall = uninstall-tve3.exe (TV Server directory)

If the shortcuts are already correct, try the following:

1. Right click on the shortcut.
2. Click properties.
3. Go to the second tab.
4. Click "change icon".
5. If the correct icon isn't already availble then browse to the correct executable (exe file).
6. Select the icon.
7. Click ok, and ok again.

Its a windows problem


1. Close all folder windows that are currently open.

2. Launch Task Manager using the CTRL+SHIFT+ESC key sequence, or by running taskmgr.exe.

3. In the Process tab, right-click on the Explorer.exe process and select End Process.

4. Click the End process button when asked for confirmation.

5. From the File menu of Task Manager, select New Task (Run…)

6. Type CMD.EXE, and click OK

7. In the Command Prompt window, type the commands one by one and press ENTER after each command:

CD /d %userprofile%\AppData\Local
DEL IconCache.db /a
EXIT

8. In Task Manager, click File, select New Task (Run…)

9. Type EXPLORER.EXE, and click OK.
