[QUOTE="The Tsar, post: 1004061, member: 31145"] I've posted this before, but the issue has recently popped up again. I like to have different icons for important files in my Documents folder. One such file is my "checkbook" (which is really just a transaction register). This is an Excel file. I've noticed that while ALL my other files retain their icons no matter how many times I open them, the Excel file will always eventually return to the default Excel icon. Is there a way to prevent this, or is it a Microsoft thing? For what it's worth, the program itself never loses its custom icon (in other words, I changed the program's icon and it has never gone back to default...just the files it creates). Any help?
