O.P. Default Filetype Icons
I just installed Fireworks MX and now all my JPG Icons have turned into an ugly orange Fireworks button.
I changed the application to Picture & Fax viewer as the default program in Folders and Files options in the control panel.. But the icons are still the Fireworks ones.

Does anyone know how to change them back to the default windows icon?

(P.S Dont say google, i looked and got nothing that helped.)

Right click > Properties> Open With, Change
