okay so my cousin used my computer and for some reason the icons for my programs are gone!

i tried assigning the icons they had with right-clicking and then going to Properties, and it did work, but when I restarted the computer to see if the icons stayed that way, well, it didn't. And it's not just on my desktop. The other icons inside my other folders are gone, too.

Hello mitch

Have you tried doing a "system restore" to a previous date before the problem?

If didn't work then try the "shelliconfix" from the site below
