  1. Default app icons the same after CU?


    I selected different apps, and then reselected these, and I even restarted, but the icons seem to be stuck on the Mail icon for default Windows apps like Maps and Photo viewer. Am I the only one?

    Can't change default apps!

    I had the same prob with this. Installed SumatraPDF, so I could use it as the default PDF viewer.

    It didn't look like it had changed to SumatraPDF. But it did. The prob was the icon didn't change from the IE icon to the SumatraPDF icon

    I had to kill explorer.exe then run it again to fix it (So, the PDF files I have had the SumatraPDF icon).

    Which is not good enough. You shouldn't have to kill explorer.exe to get the right icon after you change the default app for a file format
