    Change Pinned-to-Start Icons (Is it Possible?)


    I was updating some of my programs and figured I'd get a different frontend for my pcsx2 emulator than PCSX2Bonus, so I downloaded spectabis and pinned it to start, then I saw it had a cool looking tile, which leads to my question:

    Is there a program out there that will let me make custom Live Tile icons for my pinned-to-start shortcuts instead of dealing with the default looking shortcut icons? I would like to style the icons I got further, rather than forever sticking with the default look I've been using for years

    The only place I see it possible is right-clicking an icon/tile, click More then click Open file location. The "traditional" Properties and Change icon will show what is available but usually not many choices.

For at least a couple of updates, Windows 10 has begun acting very, very strange with the Start Menu. Right now the issue is that pinned icons vanish and reappear seemingly at random (although always - if at all when I pin something new or unpin...
