CORRUPT ICONS in win95

Hi!

All of my icons are "corrupted" - they all look basically cryptic and
distorted.  I am wondering if this can be attributed to a specific file that
is corrupt?

Any suggestions?

(Already tried re-installing Win95 into same dir.  I want to avoid
re-installing from scratch...)

Get tweakui for your version of gatesware and use the repair icons
option.

IIRC Win9x caches icons in file "ShellIcon" however if you delete
(after backing up !!) this file Win9x will rebuild it with the
correct Icons
