    Start menu default internet acces icon screwed?

    You generally set that via the Start Menu settings (right-click start menu -> properties).

    I had that issues a while ago, and it meant removing it from the Start Menu, and reinstalling my browser to get the icon back, it was very odd.

    Windows 10 & metro apps start menu icons on search

    I've been having this problem since a few months, it's very similar to this: Blank start menu icons on Windows 10 but yet a bit different, i of course tried the proposed solutions there but nothing worked so far.

    Basically on my start menu all icons are fine and working perfectly, but when i search for a metro app this happens:

    i even tried contacting microsoft's support to no avail, they just suggested to reinstall (which i don't want to do)

    If anyone has any idea on how to solve this, i would be extremely grateful

    Thank you

    update: also tried every solution posted here UWP icons are missing with no success
