Windows 10: Adobe Icon

The icon now showing on all my PDF's is now a white rectangle outlined in red with the Adobe symbol in red in the middle and the letters PDF below.

I have tried changing the icon via the shortcut under Adobe properties. The icon to select looks like what I want...box outlined in red, black background, and the adobe symbol in white, without the "PDF" below it.


How can I get the icon to be what I want it to be, what shows in the list. By the way, it is the only icon which shows in the list, coming from the file

%SystemRoot%\Installer\{AC76BA86-1033-FFFF-7760-0C0F074E4100}\_SC_Acrobat.ico


Thank you!
