Upgrading from XP to Windows 10 and reinstalling Folder Marker Pro.

[CheckMarc]

My computer's motherboard was damaged by and electrical surge. I use Folder Marker Pro to add more colors and icons to differentiate the folders. The folders I used Folder Marker Pro on aren't showing any of the colors or icons in the new install of 10. The ones that I marked distributable are working fine. I installed the free version to see if it would fix the problem but it didn't.

The ini files in XP reference:

[.ShellClassInfo]
IconFile=C:\Documents and Settings\Marc\Application Data\ArcticLine\Folder Marker\icl\Colors.icl
IconIndex=31

The ini in 10:

[.ShellClassInfo]
IconFile=%FOLDER_MARKER_DIR%\icl\Colors.icl
IconIndex=1

"C:\Documents and Settings\Marc\Application Data\ArcticLine\Folder Marker\icl\Colors.icl" for all intents and purposes, this doesn't exist in 10. I did try copying that folder over to the new installs "C:\Documents and Settings" but it didn't help.

How do I fix the problem? I've contacted their tech support but there's definitely a language barrier problem.

I assume you saw this: http://foldermarker.com/support/

I can't find anything on installing it, it says it should work on win 10 though knowledge base hasn't been updated for over a year.

It works fine on the files that I use it on after I installed the software but it doesn't work on the files that I used it on before upgrading to 10.
