Changing the icon for DocBook files in oXygen

Is there an easy way to change XML file associations from a DITA icon to a DocBook icon? Since I upgraded to v 12.2, I'm now getting a DITA icon and file type "DITA document" in Windows Explorer. I don't use DITA, and very soon I'll be demonstrating oXygen to potential users - so I'd like to make a new file association ready for that.
Thanks

Hello,

By default Oxygen only assigns that icon(DITA) with files that have the ".dita" extension. XML files(".xml") are assigned a generic XML icon.
There is no DocBook icon for file associations(it's only available internally in Oxygen).

A solution would be to reset the file association for .xml files and then re-associate it with Oxygen.

What version of Windows are you using(XP, Vista, 7)?

Regards,
Adrian
