- Hi,
- As many of you are no doubt aware, if there is a problem with the desktop
- files, it is not possible to recreate them using system 7 due to sys7 not
- recreating the desktop files on appleshare servers.
-
- The straight fix is to rebuild the files after booting from a system 6.0.7
- floppy. Fine, this works and you get icons back.
-
- But, you don't get the nice 3d colour icons that sys7 has for some
- applications - only the B&W ones.
-
- I know that this is fairly trivial, but does someone have an idea of how to
- get those icons back? The only solution that I can see is to reload the
- software from floppies again :(
-
- This would be acceptable if I only had to do it once, but I've been hearing
- that the desktop files get corrupted rather often....
-
- Any and all suggestions gratefully received.
- Tone.
