Windows 10: Icons Not Showing In Search

When I search for programs in Windows 10 search, some icons do not appear for their apps. I looked at different options, like changing scaling and saving thumbnail picture, but none have worked.

Thumbnail icons of many windows based apps are not showing in search

• I tried all that you suggested & found no corruption in windows while performing step 5
  
• Does it will take a time to get icons back or it should start working at the same time??
  

• If it should start working at the same time, then it is not loading any icons.
  

• I used dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth as well as sfc /scannow but found no error.
  

• When I created a test account & enabled an Administrator account I observed that the issue was not present in both accounts but it is present in my current account so what should I do in such a situation?
