Icon Developer and Packager help, Please

from WinCustomize Forums
Last week I had a hard drive problem and had to re-install everything. Luckily I had most things backed up (lost a few on my newest things though ) but here's my problem...some of my icons were saved as icon library files. I thought they would automatically be imported into Icon Packager when I reinstalled (they were saved in the icon packager themes file). I was mistaken. They didn't show up, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to get these library files into IP files!!! Do i have to use icon developer and do each one individually??? I thought there was an option somewhere to import icon libraries...any one have any hints or rules for doing this? Thanks Bet

I think if you just open up Icon Packager and click "Install New Package" then "install from disk" on the drop down menu and navigate to the file you want and click it, it should import it....give it a try bet

Tried that...it ignored the library file completely!! I keep getting a msg that no icon package was found in the file, but when i open it in Icon Developer, it shows up as an icon library. Any ideas as to how to fix this? I already tried an uninstall and reinstall via stardock central. Nothing changed. I am about ready to give up on icons!!!

Yeah, sorry bet, you might have to redownload those sets, I don't know. If you decide to do that and there are some you can't find, just email me with the names and I'll see if I can track them down for you. good luck

Well, had to do a clean install of windows to get rid of the problem. Since my printer installed some extraneous stuff that I never used, I uninstalled it, and then it kept trying to re-install and was messing up alot of stuff. Arggh! But all is well now, and my icon libraries are back and working properly.
