Location Of New System Icons?
Sep 21, 2015Is there a system file that contains the various new icons found throughout Windows 10 - something along the lines of imageres.dll? It would be nice to use some of these for shortcuts.

View 6 RepliesThe symbols that show the battery percentage, the calendar, and the sound.... they are in the lower right corner. I want to move them to the lower right corner of my second monitor, without making my second monitor the main monitor. Is there anyway to do that? Or at least duplicate the icons so they show on the second monitor?

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to find the location of the icons located on the start menu (as seen in the image I uploaded). I am specifically looking for the folder explorer one as I am trying to set the taskbar explorer to that icon. I am using the program IconsExtract to scan my computer for icons but to no avail...
I figure since I'm not finding it as an icon, they must not technically be icons. As we are able to change their color via our color settings, they must be some sort of svg or something of the sort.
They are located in the Segoe MDL2 Assets Font. I was looking at this site and then realized that front-end uses fonts for icons as well. Then boom. win.
Now to figure out how to use it in xaml files and where the start menu is calling it.

I have windows 10 pro and if I go to settings, then system, then notifications and actions and then turn system icons on or off, I'm presented with a list of various settings to turn on and off, one of the settings is location, it is off and it is greyed out. I've restarted numerous times....
View 9 RepliesI am trying to make space on an empty partition as a temp backup before I install a fresh copy of 8.1 to upgrade to 10.
I'm using Mini Tools Partition Wizard 9 Free Edition. What I have looking at the partitions are, a C partition (700 gigs capacity), then a System Reserved partition (350 mb's) then a F drive with 100 gigs of unallocated space. Here is an illustration.
Disk 1 - { [700 gig C] [System Reserved] [100 gig F] }
I want to shrink my C drive by 100 gigs and then resize my 100 gig F partition so I will have 200 gigs of usable space for the backup - But I can't because somehow my System Reserved Partition is on the right side of the C partition between the C and the F. Normally this system reserved partition is on the left of the C partition.
I do not know how this partition got moved. I did have another partition set up after the C drive that I used to install the Win 10 preview on but I since have deleted that partition and edited the boot menu to reflect this in MsConfig. Perhaps Win 10 moved my System Reserved partition over?
I have Windows 10 Home and all of my icons have disappeared. I mean not only my desktop ones all of them I will include some screenshots. This happened when I used the Winfix option in the Systemcare 9 Pro app. It told me the I have something wrong with sticky notes, so I just clicked fix then all of my icons just disappeared, and it said the problem was fixed. I have tried running every troubleshooting method in the windows OS and I everything says everything is all fine.
My personal theory is that either there is a setting for this that I can change back or that I have a problem in the registry (I do not back it up frequently sadly so I cannot load a backup) or the problem lies in a corrupted file (I have used sfc /scannow and it says nothing is wrong). I also am unable to access the properties option (Whenever I right click the menu comes up but when I click properties it won't open).
OK, so the latest of my problems with Win10, I just got done repairing a Winsock file missing issue, after the reboot the "volume" icon doesn't appear at bottom right any more. Volume works fine, and I can adjust it elsewhere, but it will not display. System settings won't let me switch it on. Battery icon and external drive icons are gone too. I don't want to just keep rebooting on the off chance that all the problems will solve themselves.
Why Win10 programmers thought this OS is good. It's a complete crock. Random problems are pretty literally non-stop. I assumed it was supposed to be an improvement from Win7.
For an example of the amateurism that went into Win10:
It seems the same level of effort went into the code.
My system icons icons are greyed out, like Volume and Power, so I can not enable them.After setup they work just fine, then they disappear. It is either caused by my settings or: I wonder, when custom power and sound card drivers gets installed, they get lost?
SFC scan does nothing. By playing with settings and closing explorer.exe, volume icon appeared and stated, that there is no audio service running, when I moved the slider, the message and red X disappeared, but after restarting explorer.exe, it was gone again. My sound card audio service, Windows audio are running. Seems this problems happens: System Icons Greyed Out for Windows 10 - Microsoft Community
When i click on the icons located on the system tray (Battery, Wifi, sound volume, notification, and time). nothing happens.

View 3 RepliesSince upgrading to Windows 10 from 7, I have noticed icons duplicating in the system tray. I haven't been able to find a solution online, as everyone else is complaining about icons in the taskbar. The most commonly duplicated icons have been Vuze, Samsung Link, and Norton Antivirus.
know a solution or reason for these multiples of icons?
In case the image link doesn't work, here is the direct link to the screenshot on my google drive.

When I mouse over to the system icons, they usually show the description of the system icons.For example, when I mouse over to the Wi-Fi icon, the connected wifi name would pop-up in a description box. or if I mouse over to the speaker, it would show 'sound' pop-up box.It doesn't show any pop-up box now for every system icons except the notification icon.
View 1 RepliesI was using my laptop last week to find all taskbar icons were all using a default icon and that the desktop icons and file explorer icons had all gone completely blank (no icons or Thumbnails).I also cant right click and get Properties to work on Drives in file explorer.System Restore no longer works, I get a "Catastophic failure" warning dialogue every time i open the panel to create restore points.If I open the "system" menu the written options down the left hand side are no longer there. If I open Control Panel and it is set to display by category there is nothing on the screen, but if I choose view small icons then the text comes up but no icons.Apart from these problems all programs function properly on the laptop, most icons are working on my start menu.
Was originally a Windows 8.1 installation upgraded to Win10 about 6 months ago. What has caused this, no new hardware or software. No changes of anything. My laptop always runs problem free!I did however notice and only saw this once, a system restore point from 6am in the morning, seems to of been created by a windows update while I was asleep, but after I saw that and tried to restore I have never seen it again, but looking on windows updates there was no new update that day.Tried setting up a new user but the issue exists in the new account also. I have also done virus checks and disk checks, restarted explorer.exe. No luck in safe mode either. Reinstalled graphic card drivers. Tried lots of delete and rebuild icon cache suggestions. Used windows defender to scan and Malwarebytes
Ran Dism commands
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
Ran sfc /scannow

I ran chkdsk /scan but nothing found and this error only appeared once on a chkdsk scan
After a day using windows 10 I can't click any icons on the system tray and I can't click the windows button. I can click them with the right mouse button. When I left click on them it gives a short loading cursor and after that it doesn't do anything.

How do I get the icons to go back to being thumbnail images again? Is there a command or menu option that will change this for all jpgs in my folders rather than having to change one by one?

I know how to set other folder than DOWNLOADS to be the default folder for downloading content from internet using Edge. However, I was wondering if that can be changed all the way so I get to choose download location every single time I download something, or can it be made to work as "save as"?
I download different stuff and I hate going into the downloads folder, and then moving files I want elsewhere..
