Recovering Icons

[Setheck]

So I upgraded my computer, and did a clean install of Ubuntu 9.04
To prevent myself from having to install all my wine apps, i just copied my .wine folder over to the new install.
I should note that this worked like a charm and I thought it was too easy to be true at first.

However, I am having the problem where I cannot find the icons for my desktop. I am wondering if these icons are stored somewhere in a windows folder under the .wine directory? Or are they gone? Please help.

If you didn't copy your entire $HOME then they are gone.

Try this to recreate links:

Code: Select all

find ~/.wine/drive_c/ -name "*.lnk" -exec wine winemenubuilder '{}' \;

Awesome, that recovered all icons and menus.
Thanks!
