MS Outlook icon / shortcut icon problems

I'm trying to figure out what I did to corrupt my MS Outlook icon.

I know that I myself asked the problem dragging MS Outlook since the MS office folder in the start/programs menu on my desktop to create a shortcut. I tried dragging the icon in the start/programs menu folder, but that did nothing.
Currently, the Outlook icon is the icon of the generic program. In addition, Outlook is no longer present in the start menu in the program folder. The program itself works very well and its icon is currently on the desktop (I found this by doing a search windows and creating a shortcut from there. This icon in the windows search is also messed up).
I don't know how to get back on this problem. Fitness is not an option, nor is the system restore (because there is no restore points).
Thank you!

Hello

I suggest you that you rebuild icon cache.
 
a. Click Start, click Control Panel, and write in the search options for files box.

b. now, click on Folder Options to open and select folders and hidden files (dot).
c. open a Windows Explorer window.
d. go to C:\Users\(User Name) \AppData\Local
e. right click on IconCache.db and click on delete.
f. click Yes to confirm the deletion.

NOTE: This removes the file to the trash. It is safe to empty the trash when you are done.

g. close the window.
h. emptying the trash.
i. restart the computer.
j. When you come back, you will notice the size of the file IconCache.db is reduced, and the update is now the current date.

NOTE: If for some reason any IconCache.db isn't there or the size has not much changed then you can just restart the computer again. You may need to restart a few times in some cases.

k. cache icon goes rebuilds.

    Outlook icon disappeared from my office. I don't find it in my list of programs.

    How to restore the shortcut?

    Thank you

    How did he disappear?  You have installed Windows 7 as a new installation?  If so, you will need to install Office.

    If not and the application is actually still installed, you can drag a shortcut on your desktop for the actual executable file...

    1. open an Explorer window and navigate to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11 (it will be OFFICE12 if you run Office 2007).
    2. scroll down until you see OUTLOOK. EXE (the extension can be hidden, this type is application).
    3. with the right mouse button, drag OUTLOOK on your desktop and drop it.
    4. When you are prompted, choose to create a shortcut here.

    I hope this helps.

  • How can I add an outlook icon in my task bar 8 windows?

    Please someone told me how I can add the outlook icon on my task bar 8 windows. I can't access the full outlook account via the mail application. It looks completely different when connect you to the internet, so I would like to add the link to my taskbar. I managed a shortcut on my desktop. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I'll assume you want to say rather Outlook.com , Microsoft Office Outlook here.   :)

    1. Open Desktop IE10.

    2. connect you & go in your Inbox Outlook.com .

    3. left-click on the Outlook.com tab and (while keeping the left mouse button) drag the tab down on your taskbar, and then release the mouse button.

    (originally the icon as a standard Internet Explore 'e', but after a few seconds should change the icon of Outlook.com .)

    Note the useful task choices available when you right click on your new icon in the taskbar Outlook.com too.

  • Windows 7 starter system tray icon problem

    Hello

    Recently, I met a problem with my wifi icon in the system tray. At startup, the icon does not and continues to lead the blue sign loading. On right click, it turns into a different icon with a red x. To the left by clicking on the icon does absolutely nothing however other icons work perfectly well. The section in the control panel associated with networking also does not.

    I am able to access the internet on some sites. Some sites like hotmail etc do not load.

    I tried to reboot in safe mode, and there is no problem however, troubleshooting doesn't show anything wrong. Enter services.msc, there is nothing to slow down the computer.

    Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem?

    Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - writing version - click on Update Driver (can not do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Even for network (NIC) card - then right click on the devices and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stacks.

    Now go look at the site of the manufacturer of the system for the updated drivers.

    After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version. (Those become your fonts of rescue system manufacturer).

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    Download - SAVE - go where you put it - right click – RUN AS ADMIN.

    You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

    Repeat for network (NIC) card and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as Windows 7 like the updated drivers.

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to turn off the pilot facilities in Windows updates, that leaves is to Windows Update, but it will not install the drivers who are generally older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then hide it (right click on it), then go get new ones manually if you wish.

  • Added toolbar folder icon problem when locking taskbar

    I like the feature to allow you to create a toolbar on the toolbar effectively the content of the folder shortcut to different places.  Not sure if this is a new feature of 7, but I just found and take advantage.

    I have two, and I've resized the so that only the text of the toolbar and ">" appear.

    The problem I have, is that when I chose to lock the taskbar, everything is resized, and I get two full or partial folder icons that come into view.  These icons represent the child folder under the folder main toolbar choice.

    As an example, I have a folder called "Source Files" I created the toolbar, so it reads Source files > in my taskbar.  When I lock the taskbar, then I get a partial folder icon to the right of ">" that links to the first folder in the Source files directory.

    Not the end of the world, but sticky.

    Does anyone have a suggested fix?  Something in the registry, perhaps?

    Wow, I'm not, but I could have found the answer to this annoying bug.  It worked for me and I was able to reproduce several times.

    my setup: I have my toolbars crumpled to the left, right next to my Start button.
    with the taskbar unlocked, I moved my whole bar vertically on the left side of my screen, so that my departure the button appears in the upper left corner of my screen and my toolbars align underneath.
    I noticed when I did that I could see partial icons when my taskbar has been unlocked (which wasn't the case when my bar was horizontal at the bottom of my screen).
    I have re-scrunched up all my icons while my bar is vertical, moved my bar together down again once (horizontal) and closed the taskbar.  not more partial icons (at least for me)!
  • Hilighting of the XP desktop icon problem (Special!: O)

    Hello

    The problem
    Basically, the text on my desktop icons is black hilighted. even if I change the background color of Uni, the text is hilighted in black and the icons are hilighted selected color. I did everything the shadows litters, lock web icons ext. I don't have a web on my desktop icon to my desktop wallpaper show (see below) that says everywhere is the cause of the hilighting. It's certainly a strange case, but I was wondering if you could shed some light on my problem.
    A bit of history
    A few months ago, I downloaded a skin for my laptop (and a patch of registry), everything works perfectly... until I noticed that my desktop background is gone. The problem was the patcher, because even if I use a different skin background disappeared. If I close my background shows explorer.exe. Today I did drag a picture on my desk and it creates a web item, my background shows, but the text is hilighted. If the web icon is removed the builds.
    Hope that makes a bit of sense (I'm not terrible to descriptive writing)
    Thank you

    p.s. I'm only 14 so I got banned the face shocked in the title

    Microsoft advised of is not "patch" as you did it.  A reinstallation of Windows XP would take you to a 'factory' as if you just bought a new camera.

    I couldn't find recovery discs for Windows XP from the links you gave - the second was an error page.

    However, the third link led me to this page which tells the story of PC Restore where you can reinstall your system.  It does not give a repair option that would let all your personal files intact but will restore the operating system to the original default settings.  Downstairs you will find a phone # contact technical support.  However, it can be a waste of time to ask about buying recovery CD because Windows XP is no longer sold or taken in charge by Microsoft and their store offers Windows 7 only.

    Manual reinstall requires a CD/DVD.    I buy a recovery CD just in case there is yet a preinstalled on my unit recovery option.  If you can make your own from the link I mentioned earlier, it may be wise to do so.

    I have this problem, I created a group data model to store the possible news of the APP to invoke to share an image.

    I fill out the model of data without problem, include the .label, .name and the icon of each target.

    But when I try to use the icon with the url provided by the application target and my app then says it cannot be found.

    IM receiving this url for foursquare

    This is the error log:

    What could be the problem?

    Thank you

    OK I found it

    I tried with my Z10 and the icon were broadcast, but in the dev is not alpha!

    So I checked the dev alpha os version is 10.1.0.1483 and the z10 is 10.0.10.690

    The previous version of the os when you try to find a file outside of your app directories you must add "file://" to get there. I knew that, but he never saw the double colon I was trying by "file://", my bad

    If the code would be like this

    QString direc = "file://"+target.icon().toString(); Add the file://

    Entry QVariantMap;
    entry ['imageSource'] = Director; Insert int the entry for the groupdatamodel information

    m_model-> insert (input); Insert the entry int the datamodel

    Director will take this Valley foursquare

    'file:///apps/com.foursquare.blackberry.gYABgBY3zYaCRi7CDRw5ChZRJ18/public/native/icon.png '.

    then read it in my list in qml item
