How to fix the icon vista??

I'm currently using Icon vista inside my pen-drive, that(icon vista) created by mayosoft.com. It looks quit nice and sophisticate.

When I plugged my pen-drive to my friend's laptop(notebook), ALL the icon vista that inside my pen-drive suddenly changed it to the default folder. But both of us are using same operation system (windows XP).

But the thing is the icon vista that I changed was came back when I plugged to my own computer.

How can I fixed the problem, can I use desktop.ini to fixed it so my icon vista folder in my pen-drive will not change to default folder any more in all the computer that plugged in.

I hope can get the solution soon as possible.

Thank you.
Richard

Yes, the desktop.ini inside s folder controls the icon of a folder. The path to the icon can be relative (such as myicon.ico) or absolute (such as C:\customicons\icon1.ico). If it is absolute, it is likely that on your friend's computer the file with the icon is not present.

The solution will be to copy the icon to each folder and use relative path in every desktop.ini. Or your friend must install the icons in the same location as you.
