I've been trying to refresh desktop icons in windows 8.1 without rebooting or closing session and it would seem that "Sysinternals Autoruns" when run will refresh desktop icons. How should I proceed to find what it is doing so I can use the method in my code ?

  • what do you mean with "refreshes desktop icons"? – magicandre1981 Jul 13 '15 at 16:06
  • I mean that if there are some shortcut that are white because the target executable was not available, there must be a way to refresh the icons so that the when the executable become available the white icon is changed to the correct icon. – Pei Chu Jul 14 '15 at 09:45
