Barring the production of a formal app

Having done what you've already done ... why not follow through and create the app? It sounds pretty useful to me!

doctorfrog:
If I had the chops, I'd do it :-) However, I am at best a power user. I was just able to figure out how to adjust the script to do it's thing somewhere other than g:\apps (which it does as a default).

Is it possible to compile a VBScript to run as a Visual Basic .exe? If so, you can add in:
- a user prompt for specifying directory
- an option so the user can whether or not it is appropriate to recurse subdirectories
- a cleanup option that runs through and deletes all desktop.ini files, or removes the icon entries in them

If not possible, well, shucks.

BigJim:
... well, shucks

Language!! We do have standards here, you know.  :D

I hear what you're saying. But there are lots of nice and talented folks here. One may take the baton. (hint!)  :eusa_dance:

I will happily convert to a desktop Visual Basic app. I like doctorfrog ideas and can easily implement. Does anyone have problem with a .net requirement?

doctorfrog:
I can live with it. ;-)
