Add a Drive Icon to your player

You can easily make your USB device show up in Windows with a custom icon. Simply find an .ico file you want to use or create your own from any photo Favicon.

Simply name your your .ico file autorun.ico and put it in the root of your drive then create a text file called autorun.inf in the root of the drive and put this inside it:

[autorun]
icon=autorun.ico

(You can name the icon anything you want as long as you put the correct filename in the autorun.inf file where icon=youricon.ico). Now, whenever you plug it into a Windows machine, it will show your custom icon!
