So what I'm trying to do is change the icons of a bunch of folders to make it easier to find what I'm looking for, but I can't seem to do it, I can't choose icon's from the properties windows because whenever I try to pick an icon it just says there are no icons in this folder even though it's a .ico file, tried to make a zip folder with them in it but it says there are no icons in this folder, can't even select an icon through the change the image option. I can select the icon and everything works, but it just doesn't change the iamge
 
Hello, Raccoon

Just to be sure, are you changing the icon by doing the following -

Right click the folder > click properties > click the customize tab > then clicking the change icon button?
