Question about 'Change the Icons of Desktop Items'

Change the Icons of Desktop Items might go to too much trouble (Michaelangelo) and risk (registry). Try this instead: (1) search the web and download some blank.ico. (2) right-click Desktop, select Properties option, Effects tab, select a desktop icon (repeat as necessary), Change Icon button, Browse button and select your blank.ico. (3) Don't bother renaming your icons, just drag them so their captions are just below the bottom edge of your desktop. Happy computing!

I back my stuff up on a zip disk before I play 
Because I have found out that windows registry back up is a joke

Learn how to back up the needed stuff to zip disk then you can play all you want.....

I have two drive setup with the same programs so If I need to put a file back I can 
just use the backup drive LOL
