Add new file type in SharePoint 2010 & 2013

Today i have faced one issue with file type.

My client asking me to change the file icon for AUTO CAD files. 

Finally i found a way to add a file type icon in SharePoint both 2010 and 2013

Step 1 : Open DOCICON.XML by redirecting the below path.

SP2010

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\We Server Extenstion\14\TEMPLATE\XML

SP2013

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\We Server Extenstion\15\TEMPLATE\XML

Step 2:

Paste your new icon into the below location 

SP2010
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\IMAGES

SP2013
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\TEMPLATE\IMAGES

Step 3:

Open DOCICON.XML and add the below line

<Mapping Key="dwg" Value="newdwg.png"/> under " <ByExtension>" Node

Step 4:

And then do IISRESET. Do not forget to do iisreset.


Hope this will helps you !!!!!!!!!!
