This is for 98, probably the same in XP,
Go into the folder, View>>Customize This Folder>>Choose Background Image

it works for me, although i notice its one of those auto-generated pages where it has commas in the filename, dont know if that has something to do with it.

You've to include the [{...}]

It has to look like -

[{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}]

I tried it on my system and it worked!

stone66 · 26-Dec-2002, 05:24 PM **#11**

So i included the brackets too !!! and then ya just save it ??

pvc9 · 26-Dec-2002, 11:54 PM **#12**

Open Notepad,

Line 1 :

[{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}]

Line 2 :

Path...Location of the file.

Save it as desktop.ini in that folder and it should work!

Eg :

[{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}]
IconArea_Image=C:\Documents and Settings\Adam\Desktop\janine--.JPG

stone66 · 27-Dec-2002, 07:24 PM **#13**

[{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}]
IconArea_Image=C:\Documents and Settings\Adam\Desktop\jenna.jpg

like so but its not working !!

Just an update, I wanted to attach a screenshot with the customized folder, but I guess that will take sometime...I'm having problems with Triple booting...Windows XP wont load...I'll have to solve it first, then try the customization. I'll post back later...sorry for the delay!
