Guys how do i make my custom folders icons permanent so wherever i copy paste the folder the icon goes along with it. I researched about it and did follow one method where he said to remove the folder location from desktop.ini file but it isn't working for me. Whenever i copy and paste the folder to some other drive the icon goes away and it just reverts back to windows own folder icon.

Basically, i want to set custom icons for my TV Series folders. If someone is using custom icons in Windows 10 please help. Thanks in advance.

bros I installed Fall Creators Update 1709 build 16299.15.
When I connected my Zong MBB(Bolt+) device it doesn't work. I also tried Zong Wingle Device but the results are same. Here are some screenshots to give you some idea.







I reverted back to 1703 build 15063.0 and everything working fine.
Any Help?

Do you want to pay for it? A simpler solution is to just auto-kms it. If you really want genuine keys, you can buy them online at some websites. Buy retail.

OEM keys are hardware locked, if you have a desktop and you replace one of the major components in it (CPU, Motherboard etc) your Windows registration will fail and you won't be able to use this same. You'll have to buy another key.

Retail Keys are best as they are not hardware bound, even if you change major components or the whole PC you can still use the same key everywhere. But only on 1 PC at a time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
