    Generic image icon


    Dunno what I did... but in the past two days I'm getting generic icon for both image extension jpg and png... was this corrupted?

    What can I do to get this back on my desktop or in my folders?

    BTW, I looked up the tutorials and find that I don't have IconCache in my "Local" folder...

    Would appreciate a workaround..

    Thanks

    Try In Explorer... expand ribbon / view / click on options box uncheck
    Always show icons never thumbnails and Display file icon on thumbnails click apply then apply to all folders.
    click ok then see what you have.
