Windows 10: Drive Icons

I've been told on various help websites that the January WindowsUpdates may have caused usb drive icons not to respond to autorun.inf and put up the included icon instead of a generic "Unspecified" - Devices and Printers shows several of these. The advice for "fixing" this seems to include doing things to theRegistry !!!. Can anyone please advise?
