To make an icon for the drive such as USB sticks or the Hard Drive or some other drive, you must follow these steps in order to make an icon. Otherwise it won't work.
1. Open your drive you want to put the icon. Don't make a folder to put in otherwise it won't work. Just make it in the main dir.
2. Go to Tools > Folder Options > View (tab) and check "Show hidden files and folders", "Hide known Extension Files" and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files". You should see a notice that warns you. Click Yes (make sure when you are done, revert it. You don't want to ruin the installation of Windows). Then click Ok.
3. Make a new text file and name it "ico.ico" or whatever you want. Just make you include
".ico" part at the end of whatever you called it. There should be a notice. Just press yes.
4. Right click it then press Edit. But just name it "ico.ico". It would be easier for you.
5. You need to make the size 32*32 pixels. The reason why you have to make at this size is because every icon uses that size. Otherwise you may get a huge icon or a small one or otherwise it won't show at all. Go to Images (on the menu) >Attributes then on width type in "32" and also in height type in "32". Check that the measurement is on "Pixels" (if you didn't change this don't worry about it) then press ok.
6. You will be needing to use the zoom tool so click the magnify tool then click on the white area to zoom. Now edit it whatever you like. Once done, save it, not changing the name. Close paint.
7. Make a new text file in the same place and name it "autorun.inf". Again you will see the same notice as before so just press yes again.
8. Double click it and copy exact what it says
[Autorun]
ICON=ico.ico
Then just save it.
Thats it. If you named it something else including the ".ico" you can type that instead. Now restart it if it is a hard-drive in the computer or if it is a removeable device just replug it to take effect. Enjoy your new icon!!!
