Slow Loading Icons

For ages I thought that Dopus was struggling to load a screen full of icons on my main apps folder.

(My default lister displays a folder containing about 250 shortcuts)

But I've just cracked it. It wasn't Dopus, but a Windows issue.

I found a tip that recommended deleting the file C:\Documents and Settings[b]yourname[/b]\Local Settings\Application Data\iconcache.db

(Windows will immediately rebuild it, but any previous anomalies will have been removed.)

Reboot

Unfortunately my defragger decided to do an offline defrag when I re-booted. So I'm not certain which change had the desired effect.

Anyway, my problem folder now loads like a dream.
