I have uncovered an error with icon overlays between Norton and Dropbox.
I am using Vista.
Dropbox, for those that dont know, is a cloud based backup that syncs a specific folder with your cloud data. It puts a green check on the files IN THAT FOLDER so show they are sync'd.
Norton backup also using green checks to show if a file has been backed up. I found that when I install Dropbox, these green checks turn into Grey "X"s. I can uninstall Dropbox and reboot, the "X"s go away. But I cannot get any overlays to appear at all anymore for Norton.
I have deleted the icon cache file from the appdata folder and rebooted...nope. I turn the overlays on and off. Nope.
I can check the properties of a file and it shows the backup tab and green status with the latest backup time.
Looking for more guidance here.
thx
