So it's not the icon shown in my screenshot above?

The system icon cache is probably corrupted in that case. Try using [Clear Icon Cache](https://resource.dopus.com/t/clear-icon-cache/10636) and that will probably resolve it.

If it doesn't, which icon do you see if you create a new text file and then rename the extension to .exe, like in my screenshot?
