Windows 11 Windows is still not able to display icons after 40 years of continuous development, why is that, and how can I fix it as a user ?
I rebuilt the cache many times, and tried every voodoo command I found, but I have never been able to get all my icons to show properly on Windows 11 since I installed it in June. The icons with the issue are RANDOM and CHANGING.- bainelf
