Hi all,

I just installed x64 on a new system, then transferred files and settings
from a previous instance on another machine using the files and settings
transfer wizard. Most of my stuff came through ok, but I lost some windows
icons somehow, most notably my Recycle Bin and My Documents Icons. Has anyone
seen this before? Is there any fix? In XP Pro I would've just repaired them
with TweakUI, but obviously that's not an option.

FYI- I tried doing an "Upgrade" install over the broken one, and when that
didn't work, I also tried a "repair installation" from the Setup screen- all
to no avail.

Thanks for all input!

Tweak UI is available for x64

Well, I found TweakUI for x64, but that did not help with my problem (In
fact, I would highly recommend AGAINST using the "Rebuild Icons" option in
this version, as it degrades the look of those icons which do not need to be
rebuilt)

Anyway, this means I'm back at square one- and I need a fix!

Please help if you've seen anything like this or have any ideas.

Thanks in advance!
