Hey people, i have just a small problem that i cant seem to solve. In control Panel there is an icon called Software Explorers. (This is part of Windows Defender). The icon is supposed to show up as a computer icon (the same as the my computer icon) but shows up as if it is not a recognised extension. I have attached a screenshot below.

Hiya Mad,
Try right click, "properties" in the "shortcut" tab click on "change Icon" If the Icon is there just click on it then click "ok" and then "apply" This might refresh the icon link. If you don't see the icon in the "change icon" window, just browse to "C:\WINDOWS\explorer.exe" and that should pick up the icon from there.
