![]() It should be possible to create indirect links to access the SMB folders and give those custom icons instead, but that causes multiple other problems:.The lack of Desktop.ini processing on SMB breaks many other things that are locally available, not just folder icons: Symbolic Links and "personalized name spaces" also don't function.There is supposed to be a registry setting that forces Desktop.ini processing by using the "System" flag instead of "Read Only" but it may not work as expected.In Windows, Read Only (with folders only) means process Desktop.ini.Desktop.ini is NOT processed by windows for SMB shares, because Linux interprets the (folder's) "Read Only" bit differently, and reports it back to Windows incorrectly:. ![]() Right-click -> Properties -> Customize -> Change Picture has no effect, even if the picture (JPG or PNG) is named folder.jpg and in the root directory of the share.Right-click -> Properties -> Customize -> Change Icon is not available on SMB shares.If it doesn't, in my system notes I found the following: There are a lot of versions of Windows (more so with different updates and security patches/restrictions), so I don't know all the details as it applies to your situation, but the above is what you want to do if it works. If it does work (which for me it no longer does-even on Windows Server-due to security updates), repeat the steps for each image/folder combination on each workstation. This might work: Rename your folder image folder.jpg and place it in the shared folder (this might require a restart of the client, and/or a dump of the cached drive icons). Jgreco: Things in the real world rarely work as well as the theoretical best case scenario. Why, for the love of God, did you buy hardware before you started asking questions? Complexity killed the cat-#1010b times!" I'm perhaps abnormally risk-adverse because I come from a Windows Server environment where the motto is, " If it ain't broke, it will be." ZFS eats RAM like a fat man at an all-you-can-eat fried chicken buffet. My bad experience with Seagate stopped immediately after I stopped buying them :) It's actually using very advanced quantum sorcery, but since Unix is Unix, everything gets dumped into the decidedly classical standard output, so that people can do Unix things to it like "pipe it through SSH" or "pipe it into a file" or "pipe it straight to zfs recv" or "pipe it into cat and immediately get arrested by the Unix police because why the !%#& would you use cat to view a text file, much less a zfs replication stream". ![]() No offense we care more about your data than your feelings. I hope that every byte of this data is either disposable, or is well backed up, sir. OP, just for the record, having a "4 drive stripe", on a scale of ZFS stupidity from 1 to 10, is a 9.998, behind only having a "5 drive stripe". The correct storage configuration with this model hard drive is as deep in a landfill as possible. I guess I could ask my Ex (she works for HGST) for some discount drives but they may be filled with C4 vs Helium. Though the fans are rated for 800-1500 rpm (downhill, with a tail-wind, and a moon in the third phase of Venus and with 64-byte UDP packets) We're talking catastrophic PSU failure, massive undetected RAM failure, physical destruction, alien high-intensity degaussing beams, extreme heat or the presence of Linus from LinusTechTips in the same room as the server. You need to change your problem so that lines up with my solution. (NOTE that that article also has some ads on it that may also say DOWNLOAD, but are to download something else.I sourced most of this from it's too funny to not share. Here is an article about several of them. officially (apart from using new colored folder icons, which can be pretty easily found on web sites or created).īut there actually are some (third party – not made by Microsoft) programs that can do that. I did not think there was a feature for having a folder/icon appear in another color in Windows. (As an aside, many programs have icons embedded in their EXE files, so if you’d like to use an icon that some program uses, you can select the EXE to use its icon for other files.) But there is a Browse button on the icon selector (when you do right-click/Properties/Customize/Change_Icon), which will let you navigate to wherever you have other icon files on your computer. You can’t easily add to the first list shown, because those are stored inside a system DLL file. Icons can be in any location on your computer’s hard drives, just like any other file.
