My icons on my shortcuts changed.

My icons on my shortcuts changed. All my icons look like the e on enternet. I can't change back don't know how. Thanks anyone who can help.

Please make the rebuilding of the cache icon first, if that doesn't work, try the following:

Do a system restore, if you remember the date when your desktop icons were as they should be. Use this date as your restore point.
Start button > Search box, type system restore > press the Enter key > uac prompt > click on choose a different restore point > next > select dates as your restore point, until the click > next > finish
To sit and wait. The machine restarts when it's done.

Note: (Optional) in most cases, it is more preferable to do in safe mode system restore.
Here's how to get safe mode:
Shut down your computer > turn it back on and immediately and repeatedly tab key F8 until you see a black and white screen. The top/down arrow and select Safe Mode.

    on a computer last year I updated firefox and he gave me an icon on my lower left side of the taskbar to access the personas. It was a cute little Fox. This computer that I use now not never showed an icon anywhere, or shortcuts, access to personas. I click firefox to watch. Why? I like to use.

    How can I get the airplay icon to appear? Changing the settings of firewall does not work

    Hello Drjoe378,

    I understand that you do not see the AirPlay icon in iTunes on your Mac. If you have verified that your firewall is disabled or that the problem occurs regardless of the status of your firewall, there is a little more that can help return your ability to connect to AirPlay devices.

    1. Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes and Apple TV software.
    2. Connect your computer and other devices on the same network Wi - Fi. If you are using Ethernet, connect the two devices on the same router or hub. If you use the Wi - Fi and Ethernet, plug your device AirPlay the same router that your computer uses for Wi - Fi.
    3. Restart your computer, device AirPlay and network router.
    4. Because some Airplay devices include a power switch for AirPlay option, look for the option in the settings and make sure that the feature is enabled. Refer to the user guide of the device for more information.

    Use AirPlay to stream content from iTunes on your computer wireless

  • Change icon - initial folder browse changed

    Recently a strange thing: when I browse to change icon, instead of start Sys32, he started in the folder that I recently watched an icon. However, little of what erks me is that long ago I asked whether her search for a start icon folder could be changed and the response I got was not.

    So - I would to bypass. I have a lot of trouble to create a dll from all the icons that I like to use and put it in sys32, naming it with a tilde and it would be at least so first upward when travel it took me to sys32 in list view. Good worked as a next best option for years.

    Now, not only that begins in the folder of the last icon browsed, but if I want to change that happen to already have an icon by default from Windows in the sys folder, when I browse, there completely ignore alpha and doesn't remember my sort order settings, it's one thing to multiplayer to find my special dll. You want details, sort by alpha, so my tilde comes first etc.

    When you're looking for answers, I found two separate sets of people: those who thought either was immutable by default for Windows - IE: it automatically starts to Sys32 always always has, or will always be the icon start finally used. So somehow these people had one or the other and not appear to change, assuming that was the only way it worked.

    Anyone know what is happening? Obviously, it is not an immutable default.

    There must be a Manager in the reg control this behavior to go, but I'm not. Help on this appreciated.

    TIA.
