Windows 10: I've messed up my system icons (again)

I need help. I recently reinstalled some drivers and software and ran CCleaner. CCleaner has been known to mess up some of my icons, but this time it messed up system icons I really want back.

When programs open and they need administrator permission, the icon would be a little security sheild... but now it's just a generic program icon. Is there a way I can get the old icons back? A repair or something?
