icon images on terminal server

Following a recent reboot all of the PDF and MSOffice document and
program icons became plain white rectangles, as if there is no program
association. Double clicking on the icon still opens the file so the
association is still there - just no icon image.

I deleted the icon cache (C:\WINNT\ShellIconCache) AND ran rebuild
icons in TWEAK UI AND rebooted - no change.

Folder icons and Internet Explorer, Outlook, Recycle Bin, Zip Files,
Wordpad, Calculator display properly it is MSOffice and PDF that seem
to be the issue.

Suggestions?
 
Re: icon images on terminal server

What is the Windows version and services pack of Terminal Services are you
running?
Does this happen to all users?
Does this happen if you logon to physical console? If it does happen, then
it may not be Terminal Services specific issues, you may get better
suggestions from other usergroups.

Thanks
Soo Kuan

Soo,

Thanks for your post. It is a W2K TS and it is fully patched and up to
date. It is part of an SBS 2K3 R2 Domain. The issue affect all users
(including Administrator) in TS sessions only. The issue soes NOT
occur when logging into the console - all ICONS appear normal.

The installations are both local and have bene fine since the server
was built 8 months ago. The icon issue started recently on only one of
two terminal servers we have - both are configured very similarly. I
deleted the icon cache (C:\WINNT\ShellIconCache) AND ran rebuild
icons in TWEAK UI (in a session - pehaps this should be done with a
console login?) AND rebooted - no change.

I logged into the console and deleted the icon cache and ran TWEAKUI
rebuild icons and now the local session has the same issue. When I
check file properties the icon image shows up correctly on the
properties page.

When I try to change the icon for a program shortcut the [Find Target]
and [Chnage Icon] button are greayed out and not available

Any suggestions?

As an interseting aside, when I open an mdb file (which jas a plain
icon) the ldb locing file created has the proper icon? Any suggestions
or direction would be truly appreciated!
