    Missing/broken icons in search results d7b78c23-559f-44ce-a05e-40c35ffa8a4b?upload=true.png

    Hello community!
    I am having the problem represented in the annexed image: some program icons are missing/not displayed in the results of the search tab.
    The problem seems to affect mainly Windows apps office suite, Groove Music, Calculator, Calendar and others, but also some third-party programs.
    I have had this problem since the Windows May 2019 Update reverting to the previous version had no effect and I still have it after updating to the November 2019 version. I am currently running Windows 10 Pro v1909 build 18363.592.


    I have tried without result the following:

    • Search and Indexing troubleshooter
    • Restart Windows Search
    • Reset Windows Search PowerShell script here
    • Deleted and rebuilt indexing database
    • Deleted and rebuilt icon cache example here

    Needless to say that I would like to avoid having to reset or reinstall Windows.


    Is there something else I can try to get back my icons?

    Thank you!

    :)

  2. MS Store apps icons are missing in search results

    I get the same issue as described here App icons missing in start menu search results

    To reproduce it I

    1. Open Start menu
    2. Type an app name (UWP app only)
    3. Look at the search results

    Consistently, UWP apps have no icons in the search results while W32 or x64 apps do.

    I have already attempted to :

    - Flush icon cache (as described in the linked post above)

    - Repair app store

    - SFC /Scannow

    - DISM /Repairhealth

    - Restore/Reset individual apps

    And none of them worked.

    So Please, do not claim this question if you have not experienced this and fixed it yourself.

    Thank you very much

    App Icons Missing

    Hi Donna,

    Corrupted applications are the possible causes why your program icons are missing after an update. To isolate your issue, we'd like to clarify a few things:

    • When you hover your mouse over your taskbar or Start menu, are you seeing the icons for your apps?
    • Have you tried searching for a specific app and check if it will appear on the search results?

    Meanwhile, we suggest that you repair and reset your applications using the steps shared by Meliton Dec on this

    thread
    about restoring missing apps.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.
