Icons missing for Calc/Edge/Mail etc after last update

youradds · 28 Nov 2017

I'm battling to try and work this one out. It appears that after the last major update, the icons are screwed up:

Here is what I get on my start bar:

Icons missing for Calc/Edge/Mail etc after last update-2017-11-28-11-18-23.jpg

The first blank one is "Mail", and as you can see it has no icon. The 2nd one is Edge (open), and again you can see it has no icon.

I have the same problem on the

It's driving me nuts. I've tried quite a few solutions found online, but nothing seems to work. Has anyone else encountered this problem since the last update?

TIA

Hi,

I tried the command, and it seemed to run through ok (minus the error below), but it still didn't fix it:

PowerShellCopyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Get-AppXPackage | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}Add-AppxPackage : Cannot find path 'C:\AppXManifest.xml' because it does not exist.At line:1 char:28+ ... | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.I ...+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (C:\AppXManifest.xml:String) [Add-AppxPackage], ItemNotFoundException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : PathNotFound,Microsoft.Windows.Appx.PackageManager.Commands.AddAppxPackageCommandPS C:\WINDOWS\system32>

Any ideas? I really don't want to have to do a full rebuild of this machine, as it's such a pig with all the drivers and software I would have to re-install

TIA
