Icons disappear? - 'Snorlax - 01-29-2011 Well, you can't really call it disappear. When I open My Computer, I see that my C: drive has changed icon to this icon: And a lot of other icons also changed to that. Happened yesterday, anybody know what could be wrong? I rebooted today, and nothing changed. RE: Icons disappear? - Deltron - 01-29-2011 1. Right click on your desktop and select Personalize 2. On the left pane of the window, select Change Desktop Icons 3. Under Desktop Icon Settings, select the icon, which you want to reset to default. 4. Click on the Restore Default button to reset the icon to the default Windows 7 icon. Let me know how it goes. Best of luck! RE: Icons disappear? - Griffin - 01-29-2011 Just wondering if you are facing the same issues ounce booting into safe mode, if this problems persists and it's bothering you try restoring your computer to an earlier date via system restore. RE: Icons disappear? - 'Snorlax - 01-30-2011 It's not just on the desktop, it's everywhere. But only regular windows icons. RE: Icons disappear? - Deltron - 01-30-2011 System restore is your best bet. RE: Icons disappear? - H0p.e - 02-05-2011 Sounds to me like the .dll files for your icons could be corrupt or missing for some reason. Try restoring to default, and if it really bothers you, do a system restore.
