changing file list icons, hidden files/folders in particular

[the_end]

I just upgraded to version 9.16 from 8.01. I noticed that the folder icons have changed and that TC was now showing folders like they look in Windows. I was able to figure out how to change it back to the old school TC look. I added this line in the config file:

Code: Select all

IconLib=C:\totalcmd\totalcmd64.exe

The only thing I cannot change seems to be the "shaded"/darker color on the hidden folders. Can I have them look just like normal folders? (with the red exclamation point). I find the color difference much too distracting.

Thank you.

P.S. I tried posting an image link too but was unable since this is my first post. Will try again later.

Configuration->Options->Icons->Uncheck «Dimmed hidden files»

I can't possibly be that stupid!

BUT, I really don't have that option showing up under "Icons". Could it be because I installed 9 over 8.01? I'll try a fresh install. Is there a wincmd.ini line I can manually add for that?

If you just want to use the old TC icons, you don't even need to set the iconlib parameter, you can do it from the configuration dialog:
Configuration -> Options -> Icons -> unselect "Show default folder/file icons from Explorer"

I don't have that option either... jeez, my installation must be pretty messed up. I'll reinstall and report back.

Yes, I re-installed and I can now see those options. Thank you.
