    Icons Turn Blank Until Renaming


    I have this issue on occasion with various .exe files. Sometimes after installing a program an exe's icon will turn into a blank page. The only way to get it's icon to return is to rename the file and the icon will return. Has anyone figured out how to stop this from happening or fix the exe's?

    :)

  2. Windows 10 updater stuck at 45%

    I too am having the same result of the renaming of the root file being denied. So I just left the update service turned off until there is a solution to this issue. I will check back to see if any progress of this issue. Frustrating, as each time
    the update happens it gets stuck at 45% with a blank screen for hours. Then have to power down and wait for the update to return to previous windows..... Ugh !!!!!

    You need to rebuild the icon Cache, along with run sfc /scannow and run Dism to fix any other issues. Usually happens after MSI is running and the installer is handing the operation back to Explorer.exe.
