All of the icons are internet explorer. how do i restore the correct icons to match the program?

All of the shortcut icons on my HP G60 computer are Internet Explorer.  Also, the icons on the taskbar and the startup listing are also Internet Explorer.  I have tried to restore the computer, but I got the error # 0x8000ffff.  I have worked and worked, but i cannot get the shortcut icons to revert back to the default settings.  Any help appreciated

Hi,
This is from Microsoft support:
If for any reason, one or more icons are not showing correctly, you can repair by rebuilding the icon cache. Icon cache is a hidden file located at the Local Folder. Here is how to do it:
1. Open Windows Explorer (any folder/drive).
2. As the IconCache is a hidden file, you need to enable “Show hidden files” option to see the same. To do this, head over to Tools > Folder Options, switch to View tab, and finally enable Show Hidden files, folders, and drives option.
3. Now navigate to C:\Users\username\AppData\Local  folder and then delete IconCache.db file.
4. Reboot your computer to rebuild the icon cache.
5. All icons should be displayed correct now.
But, before rebuilding icon cache, I'd suggest you to create a restore point .
Regards.
BH

  • HT201274 I accidentally reset the my ipad2  the applications are totally erased. how can I restore those applications again.

    My ipad2 was accidentally reset and all my applications were deleted. The only thing that appears in the screen is the logo of itunes. How can i restore back the preinstalled applications? Is there anybody who can help?

    Did you originally set it up with iTUnes? If so, connect it to that computer, connect your device and open iTUnes. You'll be offered the option to 'set up as new' or 'restore from backup', choose the restore frm backup and it'll restore your device to 'as it was' on the date of that last backup (now if that backup was 6 months ago, then that's where it'll be restored to, 6 months ago and you've lost anything between now and then.
    If all your apps aren't there, all you need to do is sign in with the apple ID they were purchased under and redownload them.

    David, have you enabled the "Autoflow" options? There are settings behind the cogwheel, that will automatically place unused images onto new pages. If you only want to select a few images from a large project, disable these two options:
    Or start your book froman album, that only contains a selection of your images, rather than from the whole project.

  • How do I restore my contacts icon? It's missing.

    Missing my contacts icon. All the contacts are there. How do I restore the icon? I've tried resetting homescreen in settings.

    You can't delete it.  Look on all your screens and inside all your folders.  If you still can't find it go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.  This will restore the home screen to its original configuration but may move other apps around to do so. (You may want to take some screenshots first so you can recreate your app layout).

    If all you did was sync your phone, and if you haven't synced again since this happened, you can restore your phone from the backup that was created at the beginning of the sync process (camera roll photos are included in the backup).  If you have synced again since this happened this backup has already been overwritten and your photos are lost.  Also, if you restored your phone from the backup of your iPod, rather than just synced, then your  photos are lost too.
    If you have an intact backup that contains these photos, do the following:
    Without connecting your phone, open iTunes on your computer and go to Preferences.  On the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically".
    Connect your phone to your computer, right-click on the name of your phone when it appears in iTunes on the left sidebar and select Restore from Backup, choose your most recent backup to restore from.
    When complete, you can go back to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and re-enable automatic syncing.

  • All photos in portrait format are displayed blurred in the preview mode "fill" of the library. In all other modes e.g. "fit"or "1:2" the photos are sharp. How can I change this, so that the photos are still sharp when displaying them in the mode "fill"?

    All photos in portrait format are displayed blurred in the preview mode "fill" of the library. In all other modes e.g. "fit"or "1:2" the photos are sharp. How can I change this, so that the photos are still sharp when displaying them in the mode "fill"? My Lightroom release is 5.7.1.
    Thanking you in anticipation!

    I'd like to get all these '-1 suffix' files together with their associated Develop adjustments into one folder (if they aren't already) so I can see them in Grid view in the Library module, which I use as my basic starting point for everything else at this early stage of my Lightroom 'career'.
    To see what folder these are stored in, right-click on a photo and select "Go to Folder in Library".
    Advice: if you are going to use Lightroom effectively, you probably want to stop using folders as your method to create a grouping of photos that are already in Lightroom; there are plenty of built-in tools, such as keywords, collections, color labels, etc.
    I don't understand why the search on the entire catalog picked up apparently the same two file versions but also got the Develop adjustments when going to the relevant Folder didn't show the adjustment black squares against each image in Grid view nor were they there when the images were opened in the Develop module.  Perhaps if I understood this, I'd be a bit more confident of moving forward myself.
    These are most likely different versions of the same photo, in different folders. Lightroom stores the edits in its own catalog, and so it knows that one folder's photos have edits, and the other folder's photos do not have edits. Please understand that Lightroom is a database, it knows where the photos are at the time you import them (or add them to the catalog by synchronize), and then if you move things around in your operating system, Lightroom does not know anything about that and problems begin. Thus the advice to organize using Lightroom tools and methods and not operating system tools and methods.

    All of my pics are blank. There is an outline but the pics are blank. How can I get them to re appear? and more importantly how did this happen in the first place?

    Move the library back into your Pictures folder and open it.  Then close it and try rebuilding again. 
    Select the options checked in this screenshot:
    If that fails continue with this:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • HT4994 i have normal sim in Nokia and all the contacts are in it, how i can import them in microchip of iPhone 4S

    Hi,
    i have normal sim card in my old Nokia phone and all the contacts are in it, how i can import these contacts to iPhone 4S. The contacts are more than 1000, it is quite hard to transfer them one by one. Please help.

    I did get a notice
    that i couldn't import new photos to my MACBook a few days ago--not enough room.
    How much free space do you have on your hard drive? - Note that you need an absolute minimum of 10GB at all times for normal operation of your computer
    Deleteing photos probably is not the answer - you probably need to purchase an external hard drive and move your iPHoto library (and possibley iTunes library) to it - you can operate that way (be sure the EHD is always available when you launch iPHoto) or you can have a small library on your MB and use iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -  to move photos between teh internal and external hard drive
    ipmovel
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
