    Edge Icon on Desktop and Taskbar


    The Icon to Microsoft Edge seems to have changed to a white "e" on a blue background. I'm sure it just used to be a blue "e" on a transparent background.

    How would I go about changing it back?

    Many thanks.

    :)

    Windows 10 desktop icons large space

    Dear community

    After Windows 10 upgrade, I'm having a problem with desktop icons with large space between each other. Not to mention the desktop icons cannot go to the edge of the taskbar or to the edge of right screen. The desktop icons can only be placed like 5 centimeters
    from the edge of the taskbar and almost 3 centimeters from the edge of the right screen. Here is the picture with Recycle Bin and Chrome as only icons you can see: http://oi58.tinypic.com/x1dlza.jpg

    I want my desktop icons to fit on edge on taskbar as well on edge of right screen like in Windows 7. And I also want not to have a large space between desktop icons, but just the same space between icons like in Windows 7. How can I do that?

    Edge Icon on Desktop and Taskbar

    Edge icon has as far as I know always been white stylised letter E on blue background (left in screenshot below), Internet Explorer icon ( right in screenshot) blue on transparent background.

    When pinned to Taskbar Edge icon is blue on transparent background by default:

    Edge shortcut on desktop is again white on blue background:

    Have you maybe changed the icon manually?

    I did recreate the shortcut to Edge on the desktop having removed it when first upgrading to WIN 10.

    Even when I pin it to taskbar it is still the white "e" on blue background.

    How do I change it so both desktop and taskbar show the blue "e" on transparent background?
