Please help me I have delete the icon cache used tweak ui but no luck. I also installed and uninstalled it in safe mode but still no luck is the icon stuck forever please help me. Picture of problem  

Well that's an easy one
Download Tweak UI & rebuild your icon cache

Ok I will try that one but I don't think it will work as I have already tried to use it.

Ok then give it a try

Did it no luck

jordan252624, Do you have multiple folders appearing as previous shell icons or just the one folder you've showed in the image?

I haven't found any other so I think it is just the one in the image.

you can manually do it in the properties menu of that folder...

---------------

Please explain how to do because I do not know how to do it with a folder only a program.

Right click your folder
Under the Customization tab, there is a button called 'Change Icon' Hit it and it'll take you to the default icon library, the shell32.dll
Select an icon of your desire there and hit Apply and Ok
 
Note* I explained this procedure with my Vista Os so if there is an alteration in Xp please excuse

I do not see a customization tab must be on Vista.

Yes. I downloaded and installed Vista Inspirat. Then I noticed Crystal Clear and wanted to give it a try. So I uninstalled Inspirat and installed Crystal clear. And then, I wanted to uninstall crystal clear; I did but now there is a Inspirat login screen with Crystal clear Buttons. I tried TweakUI but no luck. My laptop is all messed up...

For icons not resembling correct

If you're using XP sp2, this may not help you so, simply change screen color depth Go to Display properties, Display settings and change the color depth from Highest (32bit) to (Medium 16bit) or other way round and apply the settings  Then re correct the colour depth you had previously. Hope this helps

Mind giving it a try

Hmm I will give the color depth a try and say if it changed my folder.

In xp to change the folder icon, fight click, then click properties, then under customize tab, click change icon

---------------

Um I did that but I only see a General Tab.

Did you try changing the Color depth

Yes I did but it didn't work. I did find out that this particular file doesn't have the customize tab but the other files in the folder that the messed up file is in do.

Well this is an option for you, Go to that file & copy/move all the sub files/folders inside that in to a newly made folder & delete the folder with that odd icon Then rename your new folder with the same name

I can't copy them or move them.

Differential Diagnosis

1. There are system files included in that folder
2. You don't have administrative rights to change contents in Windows folder
3. Your machine is having some problems
4. You've got a virus (may rare)

This Folder is may be created by a particular program e.g any download manager, so it's icon is by default , if this folder is associated by such program try uninstalling that, or the most probable cause is YOUR SYSTEM IS INFECTED  
 
Wait can you tell what is inside that folder, i mean do you recognize the content as your own.
 
Open command window, type the path of that folder then do this
"path"space"-s"enter.
this will remove the system tag from the folder as well as files, after that you may copy your content then delete that folder  
hope this helps you

Ok I did what rahul123 said but I still can't copy I only get the options of
Update, Remove and Properties. And I do not think I have any viruses I do a scan every day. The program files I see are get_atlcom Class, Java Runtime Eviroment 1.4.2, Java Runtime Eviroment 1.6.0,
MUWebControl Class, Symantec RuFSI Utility Class
and Windows Live Security Safety Center Base Module. Should I remove one or more of them?

1) Open Notepad and type in the following:
 
[.ShellClassInfo]
IconFile=%SystemRoot%\system32\SHELL32.dll
IconIndex=3
 
2) Save that file as Desktop.ini into the Downloaded Program Files folder.
 
3) Close Notepad, close all Windows Explorer windows. Now go the directory where Downloaded Program Files is located at, and press CTRL + R.
 
There you go
 
EDIT: If you are not capable of doing the above, just post the full path of Downloaded Program Files (e.g. C:\Documents\Downloaded Program Files) and I'll write a program to do that for you.

Legace did what you said but I can't move the file into Downloaded Program Files it says wrong path.
