Windows 10 - Icons Gone Blank

[soccerkingpilot]

All of my MS Office icons, Autodesk, and only one Adobe icon have gone blank and I can't seem to get them back. I tried unpinning the programs and then repinning them by going to C:\Programs Files\... but no dice. The actual program in the program files folder still has the icon but when I pin it to the taskbar or start menu, the icon goes bank.

Theres a arrow that lets you go to like the next page on the task back rotate it back maybe that will help

I'm not sure I understand your answer. All of the application icons show up on the taskbar but some of them don't have the right icon image. For example, Adobe Acrobat shows a blank file icon, and MS Outlook shows another placeholder icon.

I found a fix for this. If you have ever used a StarDock product this may be what affected your icon cache, either way this worked for me.

You can download a free trial of StarDock IconPackager from cnet or download.com

Install it, then run that. Once in the program go to Settings - then at the bottom first click Repair Shell Icons, then wait til that finishes and then click Repair Icon images. This brought back all my start menu icons in Windows 10 as well as any broken elsewhere.

I tried this and Icon Packager is not Windows 10 compatible. Any other options?
