Word icons missing from Word docs in Office 2019

1. New ThinkPad X1 Carbon with Windows 10
2. Installed Office 2010 - everything fine
3. Installed Office 2019 still all good
4. Uninstalled Word and Excel 2010 - no problems
5. After some weeks Office 2019 turned into Office 2016 and Word docs became generic plain icons but still opened with Word
6. Tried every solution I could find in the internet including tweaking the registry
7. Removed Office 2010 using Programs and Features
8. Everything was fixed- Office 2019 back and Word icons back - Thank you Steve from this forum.
9. Then after just a couple of days I got a Windows 10 update and Word icons on Word docs disappeared again and as well Excel file icons and Office start menu icons disappeared except for Skype and one other (Outlook?)
10. An Office online repair got the Start Menu icons and the Excel files ones back but not the Word doc icons
11. Downloaded the Office removal tool and totally removed Office 2019
12. Reinstalled 2019 and no Word Doc icons as well as no more OneNote program even though one note files on desktop did have OneNote icons
13. Downloaded OneNote from Microsoft Store
14. Everything seems to be working now but still no Word icons on docs, just plain generic ones. But they do open in Word
15. I am relatively new to Windows 10 and it says I cannot undo the updates because they are more than 10 days old which does not even seem to be true.
16. Windows Version 10.0.19041 Build 19041
17. Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 7, 16 Gig RAM

 

Word and Excel 2013 now crash when I try to print or edit-Outlook OK

Trying to print or edit in Office 2013 Word and Excel now causes the program to crash. Outlook works fine.

the following have not fixed the problem.

1. Repair install of Office 2013
2. Uninstall (with Revo Pro) and then full re-install
3. Uninstall and then reinstall of the HP Laserjet printer drive.

What is my next step, short of nuking the entire Win installation and starting over (ugh!)???

 

Can't remove pinned office applications

My laptop is a Dell Precision 7510, running Microsoft Windows 10 Enterprice 64bit (10.0.15063 Build 15063) and Microsoft Office 365 ProPlus (1701 Build 7766.2092).

My problem is, that beside some useful apps on my taskbar, office has also pinned Word, Excel and PowerPoint. I would like to remove these 3 pinned apps. When unpinning them, they actually disappear, but after next restart (or restart of explorer.exe) they reaper as if nothing had happened.

I have tried following this "guide":
Redirecting

I have seen the above suggestion posted on several sites, but unfortunately it doesn't help in my case.

When executing the script (or preforming the steps manually) all is removed, but after explorer.exe restart below icons always reaper:

• File Explorer
  
• Internet Explorer
  
• Outlook 2016
  
• PowerPoint 2016
  
• Word 2016
  
• Excel 2016
  

Other apps pinned at the time is removed as intended.

Does anyone have a suggestion to how I can remove these unwanted office apps from my taskbar? And why do above list or apps reapear after deleting them from both the %APPDATA% folder and REGEDIT?

Thanks in advance.
