  1. Strange app icons


    Hi, I was using my laptop when I noticed strange app icons when I clicked win button. It looked creepy. What's that, is it a bug? My win version: 10.0.18362. It appeared on the random apps and disappeared after a minute, should I be worried about this?

    Strange USB-Drive Icons

    Hi, I've not looked into this at all, but looking at that folder the one that appears to contain the strange icon is
    f4e323bf-0f31-42b6-9ad6-5d5382d3fa83
    - I don't have one called 797289b8-812a-4d9e-bda5-91567fd47bc6

    Would I be correct in thinking that this ico file is the clue as to which to delete?

    And thanks- having deleted the folder it did indeed prove necessary to use Driver Booster as described. Problem solved- for now...

  3. Strange Shadow type Icon/Image Windows 10

    Hi VidhuGour,

    In order to help you with your concern about the strange shadow, icon or image on your Windows 10 screen, you may check and access the icon using the File Explorer of your Windows 10 PC. Follow these steps:

    • Click the File Manager icon from the taskbar.
    • Click This PC.
    • Click the Desktop folder.
    • It should show you that strange desktop icon and its corresponding File name.

    If it doesn't show, you may try changing your wallpaper into a darker type and see if the strange figure would still be there. If it is, then it might be a dead pixel that you currently have on your screen.

    Let us know the result for us to help you further.

    Regards.

    Strange app icons

    Strange icons after cyan Update Lumia 620

    Guys i finally did a hard reset and it worked!!!

    First i did a backup of everything that's there on my phone i.e. app list, sms,camera roll,etc.

    And then after hard reset i just added my account(Microsoft and Nokia) and then everything was automatically synced step by step even my here maps collection was synced.

    I really liked the way this entire sync was taking place without the user interruption.Hats off to Nokia and Microsoft for that.

    After everything was synced i just had to download all the apps from the store, which took a while as my internet speed is not that great!

    Now my phone is as good as new and the strange icon issue is gone.

    Thanks everyone for your valuable suggestions.
