[note]This solution may be a repost. But I didn't find anything when I did a search.[/note]
Okay! I found the solution. (atleast for my case)
In 16 bit color I did the rebuild icons thing and TweakUI killed the 16-bit color icons and made it something like 8-bit ugliness.
SO:
I searched "icon" in my registry under Current_User BECAUSE I logged on another account and found that under the same color depth (16-bit) the icons were still fine. So TweakUI obviously changes it per user and not per system.
What I found was:
under
My Computer/HKey_CURRENT_USER/Control Panel/Desktop/WindowMetrics
there is a key called "Shell Icon BPP". (Bits per Pixel I assume)
TweakUI for some reason set that to 25. Well, it should be 16 (for 16-bit color depth)
change it, restart or relogon (I dunno, I didn't test re-logging on I just opted to restart)
Now you're back in business.
