The Taskbar icons have been corrupt for some time but today I just noticed that some of the desktop icons have also lost their picture.

when I look in Start up the apps on the task bar are showing correct but when I add them to the task bar they dont show correctly

You can change each icon to what ever you like in icon library. Please try

 

  1. Right click an icon (or corrupted one),
  2. Select Property (at the bottom),
  3. Click Change icon,
  4. Now you can see a list of many icons, select the one you prefer.
  5. Click Ok/Apply

Regards.

This doesnt work for the Taskbar icons - there is no properties option when right clicking.

the corrupted items on the screen are jpg or pdf so also dont have properties.
