    Square missing icons, how to fix it?


    Hello
    delete icon cache, delete font cache, SFC, DISM didn't work.
    Segoe Symbols replaced and it doesn't work either.

    It's not first time, when Windows 10 show's this idiot square, on another computer I had a similar problem with the logout icon in start :/

    Missing Icon


    I have a program called IDE.exe.

    It uses the drawing board icon.

    It creates a project file with the extension .prj.

    The project uses the hammer icon.

    IDE.exe is there with the proper icon.

    But the .prj file shows white square (no icon).

    When I go to Associate a file type or protocol with a specific program. There isn't any .prj extension on the list.

    How can I add it?
