Yes, It happens.
almost always, when it happens to me,
is 'cus I messed with apearance configuration
or tried to change icons.
but if even they work fine, but the aspect confuses you,
you could always change the icon back,
but you probably already know it, right?
open explorer > tools >folder options > file types
scroll to "cfg" - clik advanced > change icon
right clik .cfg > open with.. > always open with

I tried that but the original cfg icon isn't there.
yo
sorry i ment "cfg"
your right .cfg isn't there...
by the way did you do that tweak - where all unkown files should be opened with notepad? if so there is your issue.

Nope. Not that I'm aware of. I haven't changed anything to do with it. It was the default icon a week ago, and now I go to amend something and they're notepad icons.Originally Posted by 15%

yo
you probably installed something that changed it to notepad (flight simulator does this)
whats the icon you want it to look like? according to me its just the blanko icon (aka unkown file)
here's a fix
the extension is found in your registry here
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.CFG
simply delete "notepad" (and anything else in eg "open withs" etc) this will set it back to default.
The attached .reg file will do it automatically for you.

that is definetly not a standard windows icon - your probably using some skin/theme.
anyway its a .cfg icon how often do you see those?
i give up
