That path is just a default path, not an icon file as requested by the dialog. You need to select a valid icon file; an icon file you see listed in the path.

because you didn't selected an icon file

Anyways,

You say you have reformatted your computer. This also means that your paths can be different.

  1. Click on the icon button to change it and press on "..." to start navigating.

  2. In the dialog which pops up, navigate to your windows system32 directory. This can be different than "C:\WINDOWS\system32", but it would be nevertheless similar. eg:
    D:\WINDOWS\system32
    C:\WINNT\system32
    C:\WIN\system32
    E:\WIN\system32

    To quickly jump directly to your system32 directory, you can also paste the next line into the filepath editbox:
    %windir%\system32

  3. Once you're in your Windows system32 directory, find the file "Shell32.dll" and select it.

  4. Once that is done you can click on "Open" and Plus! will add that file, with the proper path, to the icon textbox.

  5. Next, you need to add ",10" (without the quotes) after it, and press "Ok"
