Hi,

Not exactly a serious problem, but all my .psd files went white and would not open when i clicked on them.

Anyways i associated them with Photoshop and they work again now, but the file image is still missing and replaced with some other random .ico/png (not anything to do with adobe).

Just wondered if anyone knows the file location of the original image used for .psd so i can put it back to normal manually, not the photoshop .exe icon though.

I can't even find it online line lol

oh and it's CS5

Thanks, any help is appreciated

I figured it!

It was confusing though.

I used a free program called File Types Manager. Scrolled down and found .psd. Above it i also so found .psb (which has the correct image) I looked at .psb and found out where it gets its icon image from.

Turns out the image is not located in a folder exactly, but the Photoshop.exe its self.

So i double clicked the .psd in the FileTypesManager, went to default icon, then browsed to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 Bit)\ Then clicked on the Photoshop.exe to bring up all the different icon images and psd was there :)

This set it back to the original icon image.

Thought i would explain it just encase anyone else has the problem and is fussy about minor things looking out of place in their computer haha. This was on Windows 7 x64

Thanks for your help anyways :)
