Task bar icons are wrong after reboot.
I rebooted my Win 7 PC yesterday, and all my task bar icons are not what they should be.
In my over 50 years of working the computers(started in '72 on an IBM 360), I've never seen anything like this.
I had 10 task bar pinned programs(with their correct icons)...after the reboot, all 10 pinned programs were still there, except they all had the wrong icons. When I hovered over the icon, the name of the program would appear above it(so I know what program it is).
I was able to 'fix' 5 of them by un-pinning the program, and re-running it, then pinning it back(with the correct icon).
But, for 5 of the programs, that didn't work. For example my Windows Explorer had a Chrome icon(fixed). The ones I can't seem to fix are:
Windows Media Player shows my burning software icon,
my LView image program shows a Firefox icon,
another version of LView shows a Windows Media Player icon,
my control panel shows a JDownloader icon
my wordpad shows a Nvidia icon
Any ideas of what would have caused this, and how to fix the icons to what they should be?
Thanks!
