Windows 11 Icon problems
This was only a problem after windows 11 update. So some of my games and steam are missing their icons. About half are fine.

list of things i did:

-verified filled integrity
-uninstalled and reinstalled
-Manually checked the steam folder for the icons (they are gone)
-Used the tool from tygerfox (which helped many users)
-(update) Checked customization in steam settings.
-(update) Checked Windows Themes are not effecting it
-(update) Deleting appcache, and resetting it

Still cant seem to get the icons to fix.

Weirdly my steam has a desktop icon but not a icon for the task bar.

any ideas?

Have you checked the customization options for the game/s? Right click the game in your library and select properties, select the customization option.

If you get no luck there, check your themes and settings under personalization, hold your Windows key and press I, select personalization, then themes, you should see an option for desktop icons.

Ok for your first request, nothing other then default there.

and for windows personalization i have none.

I should mention its not all my games. just some.
Have you tried deleting your appcache folder? You will need to exit Steam completely, navigate to your Steam folder on your hard-drive, delete the appcache folder then restart Steam, it will recreate it the next time you log in.

If you don't want to delete it completely, move it to your desktop, once Steam has restarted you will see a new appcache folder, replace it with the one from your desktop, see if that resolves the issue with your missing icons.
Tried that.
no go

We're not having much luck here :steamsad:

I've had a look around, try this thread, there might be an option you haven't tried yet:

It's quite a big post and some users are using Windows 10 so it might not work on your OS, I'm using Windows 11 and have never had this issue (so far).
ok i will go through it tomorrow

Hopefully, there will be an option there that can fix it. The only other thing is deleting the icon database file, it's hidden on your hard-drive, but that's more specific to Explorer and probably won't have any effect on your Steam icons, which is why I've not mentioned it previously.
ok wait, that might be it. I purged explorer from my system. I removed a whole bunch of crap from windows like cortana. I did the same on windows 10 and didnt think that would have been a problem

Wow, I didn't think that would work which is why I didn't mention it. Hopefully, it's now fixed?
I have no way of testing if this is the problem. Windows doesn't supply the files i need to restore the registry.

There are tools available to reset or repair your registry, a quick Google search should list them, it's not something I'll mention here as it can sometimes have unforeseen consequences if you don't know what you're doing.
