Question about 'Enable Iconic Preview of Bitmaps'

I have a question about Enable Iconic Preview of Bitmaps:

The article states that "If you've accidentally disabled [the iconic preveiw for icons], the same process will work for ICO files. I have my icons associated with G:\Program Files\Icon Tools\IconEdit\iconedit.exe, but no (sub?)key for IconEdit exists under H_CLASSES_ROOT like it does for Paint.Picture Just to make sure I have this right before fiddling with the registry, do I: 1) create a subkey (Edit > New > Key) under H_CLASSES_ROOT named "IconEdit"; 2) create another subkey under that named "DefaultIcon"; 3) change the (Default) value to "%1"? Also, under the Paint.Picture key, there is a (Default) value with the data "Bitmap Image" and other subkeys besides DefaultImage (CLSID, Insertable, protocol, and shell). Do I need equivalents for these under the IconEdit key, assuming I have the above three steps correct?
