Reset Icons to none/default

[rolandixor]

I accidentally gave all executables an icon in the file manager. How do I reset that?

Hmm - If you can't use K > System Settings > Appearance -> Icons (default is Crystal SVG)

Edit /home/USER/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals.

There is:

[Icons]
Theme=theme_name

Just remove "Theme=theme_name" and Kubuntu will use default icons theme.

Note
USER is your log in name.

My bad, use those instructions when you want to reset icon theme.


Reset one icon (executable):

Goto /home/USER/.kde/share/mimelnk/application/
There should be x-executable.desktop-file, remove or rename it.

=> Executables should have default icon.


Change icon:
Right click icon in the file manager > Properties >


Click wrench


Click Icon

Choose icon...
