I'm using Iconpackager from Stardock to change the system icons. It works fine in regular explorer as a few other file manangers( FreeCommander XE and eplorer++), but when I use xplorer2 with iconpackager I get this.
It works for for the higher res icons, but not for the small ones.
Small icons in xplorer2 are black squares.

xplorer2 isn't doing anything fancy with icons. Have you tried a different icon pack, do they all show black?

It's an overlay issue ? Mostly effects the folders icons and default blank file icons. For some reason the C drive is effected too. the other icons showed up properly.

Re: Small icons in xplorer2 are black squares.
Found a reply from a user name Janly on the wincustomize forum:
"I found the setting to correct it. Just in case others are having similar issues; need to go to Advanced Settings for xplorer2, on the Global tab, need to toggle on the "Disable custom drive icon extraction"(6th in the list). That will bring all icons to the defaults set by icon packager."
It works.
