I can't find certain folders that are in windows created folders e.g A Custom created Icons folder is in C:\Windows\System32\Icons but It always is an error image

Certain Icons do not work when using shortcuts image

Functionality to change Icon

Kindly add functionality to add the windows store installed apps without Destroying the windows folder to get access to it

For issue 1, that may be related to the fact that the application is not elevated in privileges. There isn't exactly much I can do because elevating the program privileges work a bit weirdly in Windows. If I do implement it, drag and drop would break because everything outside the program is not elevated in privileges.

Next, does that still happen when you drag and drop them or add them, or is that exclusive to the file picker only?

Functionality to change program icons/overrides I will work on soon! Thanks for the suggestion

Lastly, there are 2 feasible ways currently to add it. Drag and drop it from your Windows Start Menu (Windows Key image

The individual little boxes for programs can be dragged and dropped. Another way is to create a shortcut for it on the Desktop and link that to the program.

I can add a selector for Windows Apps specifically, but I will see the implementation on that part.

Thank you for replying. and 100% sorry for the late reply

  1. Yes it does still happen when I drag and drop it's like it was never there in the first place
  2. For the icon change Found it's not much of an issue as I can do it manually but it'll be better if it was straight in the app
  3. Drag and drop from start bar for windows app works like magic probably you should have it as a tip on the app like right under add a new shortcut but it always comes up with these errors TaskbarGroups_EvRSb6VDtL TaskbarGroups_ocyJ43BkNa thank you
