• The desktop icons back to the generic icon of IE

  I use Vista Home Premium on a new computer.  When to create internet related shortcuts (e.g. Yahoo) I get a generic IE icon 'E '.  After changing by another icon, so that they don't look alike, on reboot they come back to the generic 'E '.  When I click right and select Properties, it shows the icon I have chosen, but this is not what is displayed on the desktop.  This is not good for re - change the icon, they remain as 'E '.  In addition, why on my old computer, the shortcut icon copies the company icon (e.g. red 'Y' for Yahoo) but is not here?  Thanks for any advice.

  This means that you must click on the link that I gave you the solution. "Custom" icons, you get Web sites are called "favicon". The Web page to which I gave you the link tells you how to activate the favicons in Vista.

• Icons on the desktop are covered by some kind of a generic icon after installing updates

  Original title: updated ruined my office!

  Once the updates have been downloaded and installed to my computer Gateway DX4840-03F (Windows 7 Home Premium x 64) icons on my desktop are now covered by some sort of a generic icon applied on top of the icon who was there.  If I take the icons up to large size I can still see the edges of the original under the generic icon icon.  I'm hesitant to do a restore before the undates were applied.  I guess that when the updates have been applied, I would have the same problem.  This is the first time that I've never used this forum thing, but it seems that this isn't the hottest place of answers...

  Hi skipplummer,

  You can check in the history of Windows update and the updates recently installed.

  Step 1:

  Check the update history to see what updates have been installed. See the link for the same mentioned below.

  See the Windows updates are installed

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/see-which-Windows-updates-are-installed

  Step 2:

  Given that the problem occurred after installing Windows updates, you can try a system restore and then try to install the updates one manually and check.

  You can try a system restore to a point before installing updates.

  Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

  To run the system restore, you can consult the following link:

  System restore

  System Restore: frequently asked questions

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/system-restore-frequently-asked-questions

  After restoring the system, try to download and install updates one manually from the Microsoft Download Center:

• I can't stop my photo thumbnails to switch to generic icons.

  In my folder of pictures, all my photo files will briefly display a thumbnail of the photo but will immediately switch to a generic photo of the examples of Windows photo icon.  I can't figure out how to get the thumbnail to stay as my photo and not switch to the generic.  I have Windows Vista and it's never happened before.  It just started to do on its own, and I can't stop it.   It's a pain in the neck to find a photo in particular, when each photo in the folder has the same generic image and not a thumbnail of the photo.  I have to click on the generic icon and open it to what is the photo.  I do not use the Windows Vista Photo Gallery because I don't like.  I don't like no way that it forces me to organize his way and not mine.  I have my pictures in a subfolder in the folder my documents.  Help!  I lost interest in my photos because of this problem.

  8. be patient because the analysis may take some time

  9. If all the files need replace SFC will replace them. You may be asked to insert your Vista DVD for this process to continue

• Action of the desktop icon

  I keep having problems with my desktop icons.  The icons on my desktop are normally appear when the system is booted initially every morning.  I click an icon to open a software package, and it will open the corrent package.  I will, when I'm thru using this package, close this window through the X.  Here's where abnormal things happen... the icons to load quickly one at a time, often from a screen of a generic icon.  Immediately after that the generic icons are loaded, the non-generic icons will load above the generic icons.  The total duration of the loading icon and redo is just a matter of seconds.

  The likely problem is associated with the IconCash.db file?  (I don't know about this file by reading articles on the web.  What I have read it makes me think that this IconCash.db file is possibly corrupted.)

  I find an IconCache.db file on my system - C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data.  The size of this file is 3 111 Ko with an update on 04/05/2009, 19:30.  Y at - he a clue here that this file is obsolete... swollen... or just the one that should be remade?  If so, how can I make this happen?  I hope that this action will you not get involved with registry... a place where I have rarely, if ever get.  Please bring any help and/or instructions enough for a beginner to follow clearly maintenance.

• After installing firefox os native app appears with a generic icon, which is the same for each of them

  I solve problems reinstall B2G ZTE provider, but all the native application like phone, camera msg etc apperars with a generic icon without staining, it is the same for each of them.

  some app have been updated, i.e. the market and in this case a correct icon appears, but others not update appears with a generic icon uncolored, customized with the name of the application text only.

  my phone provider was movistar, the manufacturer was zte and the model is open from zte.

  I need help to install the correct icons without having to completely reinstall the system if it were possible. Otherwise, the help is to know how to reinstall B2G correct icons

  Hi Josefer,

  I'm sorry to hear that you have problems with your Firefox OS. What are the instructions did you follow to Flash your device ZTE open? Did you receive errors in the process?

  I would say the best way to solve this problem would be to reset your device.

  Warning: Resetting your phone will remove all data stored on the device, including applications, data from the calendar, e-mail accounts and settings.

  To reset the device, follow these instructions:

  1. Open the settings application.
  2. Press the button of device information.
  3. Press the button more than information.
  4. Press the Reset button.
  5. Press OK to continue or Cancel to cancel.

  If the problem persists, you may need to reflash your device using the construction and the instructions available on the download page of ZTE:

  • http://www.ztedevices.com/support/SelectProduct.HTML?type=software

  In addition, please remember that the best place to find support for questions specific to the device is directly with the OEM, as they provide the device-specific builds.

  We hope that this problem fixed the problem you had. Please report to us if this helped!

  Thank you!

• All the addon icons are missing in the window customize

  I use FF 3.6.18 on XP, Vista and Win7. Given that FF itself upgrade 3.6.18, Miss all kinds of icons of the addon. Needless to say most of the addons cannot work unless that icon there to click. When I went to the [toolbar Customize] window to drag the icons réécrirait tool/menu/status bars, I find that ALL my icons missing addon. The FF default icons are there, but all the addon icons are missing. I've seen a lot of messages from people with the same problem as FF4 running, but it is not only a problem with version 4. Most of the answers provided were advised going to the window to customize and dragging that icons back out - obviously written by people who have not been read the question very carefully. Others recommend clicking the [restore default icons] button. They did not read the question with much attention either. I have this problem on my PC, those running XP, Vista and 7. Yes, I already ran ladies of virus and spyware, and that has not helped one of my PCs. reinstall the addons is no help either. Since the problem is on all of my PCs in various operating systems and upgraded to FF4 seems to make things worse, it looks like a bug in FF. Most of my friends who use Firefox have the same problem. It is a bug, or is it repairable? Does anyone know how to solve this?

  After, with great difficulty, eliminating the motor leads from my system, I tried half a dozen other things, but ultimately never gave up is fixed without wiping my hard drive clean. However, the latest update of Firefox (3.6.24) solved the problem! on all my computers! Don't know what you people at Mozilla has done, but thank you, thank you, thank you. No idea what caused the problem, or what fixed it, but it's a happy camper now.

• in the menu toolbar customization, ALL the small icons in the last set (home, reload the page, stop downloadig page, etc.) are dishes on MISSING. What can I do?

  in the menu toolbar customization, ALL the small icons in the last set (home, reload the page, page download stop, etc.) are dishes on MISSING, and therefore I can not add the Firefox.What can I do?

  These buttons are not in the drop-down to 'Add' Palette, they are on the Navigation toolbar and must be "moved".
  The buttons Stop and reload should appear between the address bar and the search bar when customize is open, and the home button should appear to the right of the search bar.
