I have made some changes for removing the shortcuts on my desktop icons.Since then I have been facing this problem. I have been given the below fix by the microsoft community.
Since you've made some modification in the registry, using any of these values (%windir%\System32\shell32.dll,-50) to remove shortcut arrows in shell32.dll will corrupt the IconCache.db.
Meanwhile, let's troubleshoot the issue by performing the steps below:
1. Press Windows key + R, then type in cmd and press Enter.
2. Copy and paste each command below one at a time into the Command Prompt window and press Enter after each command:
ie4uinit.exe -show
taskkill /IM explorer.exe /F
DEL /A /Q "%localappdata%\IconCache.db"
DEL /A /F /Q "%localappdata%\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer\iconcache*"
shutdown /r /f /t 00
The fix worked out for me for the first time but I have to perform the above steps everytime I login into my PC.Could you please provide the complete fix.
