    I have created a Folders on a seperate drive called My Icons and have all my custom icons that I have collected over time stored in this location. This location is F:\My Icons

    I would like to know if perhaps there might be some sort of Registry hack that would take me directly to F:\My Icons Folder?

    It sure would save allot of time to go directly to the location I have choosen rather than always having first of all go to C:\Windows\system32\SHELL32.dll and then having to choose to Browse to where I have them stored?

    Thanks So Much,

    I too have an icon folder.

    Placed mine: C:\Windows\system32\1icons

    When I go to change an icon, I don't have to look too far.
