Windows 7 - HELP ICONS
Asked By PAUL
20-Nov-09 06:08 PM
I have asked in the past, and so far I have not solved this issue.
On my laptop under Vista Home Basic, for a few months now, I do not have
Icons in my Help Folder. Just an X where the Icons should be.
Thanks in advance for any kind of help.

Not sure if you got the first reply as my mail shut down. I am using Vista
32 bit, and followed the link and step 2 downloaded the file and followed
instructions, and still NO ICONS in my Help.
Brink replied to PAUL
Nope did not get that one.
Double check in Default Programs to make sure that "Window Photo
Gallery" is set as the default program with all of it is associations.
Specifically the PNG association. It may be not set correctly causing
this.

PAUL replied to Brink
Did that and made sure that all of them are set to default, reboot the
laptop, clicked on the Help Icon, and still X like in the past.
Brink replied to PAUL
Umm. As a test, create a new administrator account to see if it works
properly in it. If it does, then you can copy any files from your old
account's user folders to the new account's user folders. After
everything checks out ok, you can delete the old account from within the
new one.

Hey Brink this worked. I can see the Icons in the new Admin account. Now
how do I move the desktop Icons from the old Admin to the new Admin so that
they will work and I will have no problem.
Brink replied to PAUL
That's great news.
You can copy all of the contents from your old account's
C:\Users\(user-name) folders into the corresponding new account's
C:\Users\(user-name) folders. If everything still checks out ok
afterwards, then you can delete the old account from within the new one.

PAUL replied to Brink
I did that but there are a few problems. Fonts are like Huge, Desktop color
diff, widgets are missing, etc.
Is there a way to bring any and all settings the same as before, instead of
starting all over again from scratch?
PAUL replied to PAUL
And one more thing. After I copy lets say Paul to Paul2 the new, the Help
Icons are no longer there. Somehow the copy from one to the other overides
them.
