I think this is a glitch in the latest version. It is beta. Hopefully they willhave the kinks worked out soon and it will be fine when it is released. I have the same problem. If you apply it again, and it still doesn't work right click a blank place on the desktop and hit refresh. That works most of the time.

I've also just discovered a problem with some icons not changing, even if I try to do it manually from the file Properties dialog/Icon/Change Icon. Many file icons aren't changing when I switch to another iconpackage either, e.g., .zip, .txt, etc. IP 3.00b .093

I also tried using the "Repair Icons" and Rebuild Icon Cache" from IP's "Settings" and have the "icon cache size" set to 3584 KB.

Any advice other than wait for the next build to see if it will resolve the problem? or is there something more I can try to do?

I had the same problem for ages, so i backed up all my skins and tried to uninstall IP with your uninstaller pro 2005, i then got a message telling me that windows explorer was running as a seperate service and that some icons wouldnt be displayed properly. It gave me an option to fix this. I then cancelled the uninstall and just reloaded IP again. Hey presto! all the folder and drive icons are completely changed to the required skin! Hope this helps guys!
