Possible to change Sandboxie icon?

Post by mrj » Fri Dec 28, 2012 4:12 am

Hi everyone, I'm a new user and I've purchased sandboxie for some months now and it's just awesome :D

I'd just like to ask if it's possible (or okay?) to change the sandboxie icon and how this could be done? (I've been looking for the icons in the sandbox folder, couldn't find them/it)?

Not really important, but am curious!

If you're talking about a shortcut icon you can change it the same way you'd change any shortcut icon.

Sandboxie's icons are embedded in the SbieCtrl.exe file, and there's no provision made for the user to replace them.

Well I kinda agree with you anoX but whats more important a fancy new modern icon or a reliable,stable and secure product. :lol: :D
But seriously a new icon would be great sometime down the road.

Icons CAN be Changed

Actually, as another guest said, you CAN change the icon in the standard way. By the way, Sandboxie does provide a second icon, a red ball with a white "X" inside. but I would just browse in my own collection of icons for something more interesting.

Actually, I have to apologize for my vague statement. I CAN change an icon on my Windows 7 Desktop or Quick Launch Bar. However, I CAN'T change the icon in the Notification area (the little box that's usually at the lower-right corner of the screen).
