Windows 10: Corrupted Start Menu Icons

Hello Windows 10 Forum,
I am frequently getting corrupted icons appearing in my Start Menu. These icons are appearing anyways if I am signed in with Microsoft or with a local account. I am really annoyed with these white icons.
I would be thankful if this great forum could help me fixing this problem.

Best regards,
Reply soon *Wink
