    My Windows icon and search icon aren't responding, what do I do?


    While working on my PC it suddenly stopped responding saying there's an error and it'll restart soon. That took about 20 minutes. The next thing I know certain applications like the adobe pdf reader wasn't responding, word files can't be downloaded and the search and Microsoft icon are not responding.

    The native apps from the system are all showing this strange square instead of the normal icons. Please help resolve this problem. Thanks

    what icons are you referring to?
    In the Windows Explorer list or desktop?

    My Windows icon and search icon aren't responding, what do I do?

    Remove Linux Desktop Icons

    I am not sure whether this will work (Ubuntu does not have icons like that on the desktop by default), but I suggest opening the trash bin and sweeping the icons into the window showing the trash bin.
