    Display settings aren't resetting


    I turned on the "use 3d display" and now my laptop screen and monitor has a black screen. It flickers for half a second for about 2 minutes before cutting the signal to the monitor and using only my laptop screen using basic display drivers.I tried reinstalling both amd and nvidia drivers did a clean install and tried DDU as well, did this a couppe of times. But the problem persists, I read a previous post and tried deleting the subkeys from the mentioned paths but that didn't help either. My laptop boots up fine but the moment my monitor is connected it goes black and flickers for once ever

    :)

    The native apps from the system are all showing this strange square instead of the normal icons. Please help resolve this problem. Thanks

  3. Icons from apps aren´t displayed correctly

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query at Microsoft community.

    Do the apps work fine apart form the icons not displaying correctly? If so I would suggest you to run an SFC scan and check if it helps. If the issue persists you may run DISM command and check.

    Follow this steps:


      • Press Windows+X.

      • Click on Command Prompt (Admin).

      • Type the command SFC /SCANNOW and
        DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth and hit
        Enter.
    Hope the information provided was helpful and do let us know if you need any assistance in the future. We will be glad to help.
