Low deeprate XP Icons?

Hello.

Is there a way to make Windows XP icons look like Windows NT wihout using mods?

I've tried using the register to change the bpp as told in this topic: http://forums.techguy.org/windows-xp/122313-tweakuis-rebuild-icons-feature-turns.html but it does not seems to work for me :(

I've read in somewhere that I can do it using a old TweakUI. I'm NOT going to do it because it may broke the system, since it is for NT/2K, not XP

so... what can I do? I like the classic view :D

You mean like this? (click on Attachment1)

I think you need to set the value "Shell Icon BPP" to something other than 16. I would try 24, 32 and 8 (in that order). It was counterintuitive, higher value brought older icons. Clear icon cache and restart Explorer (or reboot) in between.

This is from memory, so I might have gotten something wrong.

Or just use TweakUI 2.10 for XP anyway... (direct link). Just go directly to the last tab, do "rebuild icons" and pray... :)
