    Icons show white after upgrade to Win10 1903


    Hi, we upgraded some machines to win10 1903 and in many of them the icons on the desktop and tool bar are showing a white box, we tried the DISM, Cache cleaning, the issue is not only with one user but with every user that logs into the machine.


    any ideas?

    Cannot change desktop icon


    Sometimes a desktop icon changes from what it was to a plain white folder. Might be something I did but not sure what.

    To change it to the icon I want, I go:
    1. Rt-click icon > Properties > Change icon
    2. I select the icon I want from the thumbnails of icons.
    3. Click OK
    4. Click Apply
    But the icon does not change. It just stays looking like a white folder.
    HOWEVER, if I pin the icon to the taskbar, the icon on the taskbar does look like the icon I selected in step-2. So the change is registered with Win10 but the icon on the desktop just doesn't change.

    Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Can't find Win10 upgrade icon

    I received reservation for Win10. A week later I could not access Win7 due to a HD failure (Lenova). At a computer store the tech reinstall Win7 with a new HD in the Lenova ( I only had a Win7 upgrade disc and no recovery disc). The WIN10 Upgrade icon on
    the taskbar was not present. All attempts by KB and support suggestions have not worked. How do I get the Win10 Upgrade icon made available so I can upgrade to Win10. I am eligible.

    The Win7 OS is with SP1 and Win Expl is ver 11

    Win10 v 1903 - icons

    I've ran various builds of the Insider Preview and only seen subtle changes in icons for the 1903 build. I think the list of recent files in File Explorer is only available in quick access.

    Perhaps you can post a link to some of the websites you have got this info from.
