Total Commander

Could this please be extended to the icons of packed (*.zip, etc.) files?
As stated somewhere else I would recommend an option what icons to use. If I use an external icon dll. I would consider to keep the default windows icons.

There are no standard ZIP icons (except if you have some third party packer installed).

I disagree. This is what I get in TC (top) and Explorer (bottom) by default.

I have no external packer installed. I would really appreciate to use the default icons if available. (If not available you could still show the old internal icon.)

Yes, but how can you get them if user installs e.g. RAR or Winzip? Then requesting .zip icon would return icon of competitor.

It may be the icon of a "competitor". (IMO there is no competitor for TC) But that icon was chosen by the user and you respect this choice at every other icon.

I do not ask you to remove the ability to open packed files in TC itself. This is one of the key features of TC and I love it.

I will try to locate the source of the explorer pack-icon, though. I will report back on this.

Perhaps you could add an ini option?

The Icon should be located here:
C:\Windows\system32\zipfldr.dll

or better:
%SystemRoot%\system32\zipfldr.dll

Using this icon or the currently used in explorer would both be fine for me.

Thank you so much for adding this. - It works fine.

Thanks for your feedback! Btw, since there is no open archive icon, I show the small green arrow while opening the archive. You can only see it when opening really large archives, though.
