Windows 10: How to I get the proper link to change a folder icon

I recently changed an icon I downloaded for a desktop folder. I wanted to change another one but now the browse option takes me to my download file instead. Where are the extra folder icons that usually appear there located so I can get them back?I'm on Windows 11 Pro.

Change Folder Icon in Windows 10


I just acquired a new laptop running Windows 10 and am trying to change the icons of the folders in the StartUp "Program" folder so that they would stand out a little better. I used my admin account and followed all the steps listed above, but when I clicked on "Apply", nothing happened. The same basic windows folder icon remained attached to the folder. I also tried to go into Properties and capitalize some of the folder names, but that didn't work either. Looks like something is protecting them, but I cannot figure out what it is much less how to get around this blockage, Any suggestions?
