Textpad icon missing from Windows Explorer

After updating to TextPad 5.0x, the TextPad icon no longer shows up in Windows Explorer for files I've associated with TextPad.
Double-click opens them fine, so the association itself seems to be working.
Any ideas?

Hi
Since writing this, I found the answer. It seems to be caused by TP 5 loading into a different folder to TP 4.
In Windows Explorer:
- Tools > Folder Options...
Select the File Types tab
Find and highlight the TXT file type
Click the Advanced button
Click the Change Icon... button on the next window
Browse to the correct location of TextPad.exe
This should show you available icons stored in the .exe file
Select one and click OK
Repeat for any other file types that have lost their icon.
Worked for me!
Regards
Greg
