I know this should be possible but haven't been able to duplicate it yet.
My proof of the possibility is Mr. Haller's Launcher/Menu and the folder icons he uses for documents folders and the portable apps folder.
I have noted the presence of a desktop.ini file and have attempted to duplicate the effect.
Haller's Desktop.ini
Code: Select all
[.ShellClassInfo]
InfoTip=Contains videos files.
IconFile=..\..\PortableApps\PortableAppsMenu\Icons\folder-video.ico
IconIndex=0
Code: Select all
[.ShellClassInfo]
InfoTip=Contains videos files.
IconFile=..\..\Apps\FirefoxPortable\Icon.ico
IconIndex=0
Code: Select all
[.ShellClassInfo]
InfoTip=Contains music and other audio files.
IconFile=.\icon.ico
IconIndex=0
I placed the Desktop.ini file and the Icon.ico file and then set the folder icon as the Icon inside the folder.
Next I test for portability to another computer.
So far No Joy.
Has anyone else found this problem?
