Underneath the choose picture button, there should be a Restore Default button.

The info for custom icons is stored in a Desktop.ini file within the concerned folder. I'm not sure if this is also the case for custom folder thumbnails.

The file is not normally shown by My Computer, so you may need to enable viewing of hidden files, and system files. If your computer hiden known filename extensions, the file will appear only as Desktop. These options are available in the Folder Options applet inside Control Panel.

Try deleting the file. If you later cusomise the folder, the file will be created as would be normally.


Yeah i forgot to mention the restore default button dosnt work.

The files are called thumbs.db, i didnt think of deleting them but hey.. It works! Thanks.
