Thanks for the tip @coz2001, recently today saw that same icon in a friend's MacBook running Catalina.
This could also be an issue with mac OS Catalina. Other apps are also doing this with ZIP files and if you try reverting the file association to the default Archive Utility app, instead of the OS ZIP icon you'll get the same white page with the Archive Utility icon in the middle.
This isn't exclusive to ZIP icons either. I've seen it with GZ archive aswell.
Indeed. I’ve contacted with the Apple Developer support and they asked me to submit a bug report. So hopefully this will be fixed in macOS 10.15.1.
I’ll be linking the information to this issue. I suggest you also report this bug using the Feedback Assistant.
Checked latest Catalina version with yesterday's supplemental update (19A602), same issue.
Same on 10.15.1 Beta 2 (19B77a).
Does not seem to be fixed on 10.15.1 Beta 3 (19B86a)
Thanks for the update, I really hope it eventually will be fixed the icons just look wrong.
Same here on macOS 10.15 (19A603).
Please, to all that are facing this issue, report it to Apple via the Feedback Assistant app that is bundled in macOS. I've already reported it (FB7365951) on October's 10th, with no reply yet.
I just reported the issue.
This is a catalina compatibility issue in the keka app because other applications will see the icon of that type as normal.

I think this is a general Catalina bug. As mentioned above the built-in archive utility app also has the same problem.
Is it really a problem, or just a change?

macOS 10.15.1 (19B88) still has the issue as expected, since it was not fixed in the betas.
@alvarnell I see this as a bug, since the specified icons are not displayed and even the file type descriptions are wrong #472.
@Euiyeon I did lots of tests, with multiple icons and empty app projects, always with the same results. Then @Deathlike shared the screenshot of the same issue in Archive Utility. Also contacted with Apple Developer support and they told me to fill the bug report.
Again, all users facing this issue should report it to Apple using the Feedback Assistant app.
Still happening in latest 10.15.2 beta 1 (19C32e). And sadly still no reply on the Feedback Assistant issue.
Still the same in 10.15.2 beta 2 (19C39d).
Weird......and my PDF files also have similar problems with Acrobat...
Please report it to Apple.

I think it's the extra "IconVariant" property that's throwing Finder off. After these steps, I can get the Finder to display Keka icons normally:
=== Environment: macOS 10.15.2 Beta (19C39d) Keka 1.2.0-dev (3575)
@jankytay there're multiple extra keys in there, not only IconVariant
. I've tried removing it anyway with no different results, so maybe is the self sign the difference that helped you. You've signed it with a developer signature?
@jankytay could you share that self signed build?
@aonez no, I signed with ad-hoc
sudo codesign -f -s - Keka.app/Contents/MacOS/Keka
and replaced all \t+<key>IconVariant</key>\n\t+<string>.+</string>\n
in Info.plist
i think trying to reproduce the whole process locally is more efficient than me uploading a 20M+ zip file 😅
@jankytay no change for me. Note that some formats not compatible with the built-in archiver (like TXZ and TLZ) have that IconVariant
key and work properly.
Still no change in 10.15.2 beta 3 (19C46a).
@jankytay, this build only has ZIP in the Info.Plist, with no other than the default keys in it: Keka.tar.zip
Fails the same for me.
huh, now this is one tricky bug to pinpoint the issue welp, i tried...
yep, thanks a lot for your feedback anyway ^^
Still this seems to be a bug in Catalina's lsd
or similar that they're not yet taking care of.
no problem, thank you for verifying it
at least it works on my machine™
Not sure if this is documented somewhere, but this might help https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58220256/file-icons-getting-changed-to-app-icon-in-macos-catalina
Thanks for the tip @mupkoo! It's the same issue but the solution suggested by Thomas Zoechling was already applied in Keka long time ago and does not solve the Catalina issue.
I also have the same issue with Microsoft excel file icon and Adobe Acrobat file icon.
@yangqun1993 be sure to report it to Apple :)
@aonez Any good news ??
@abdelle7 sadly in the latest 10.15.3 Beta 1 (19D49f) this is still present...
I'm seeing this with all sorts of other apps too
Try COMPLETELY uninstalling VLC media player (if you have) restart and then install again. It works for me. It was a problem past association some archives (rar?) with VLC...
I also have the same issue with Microsoft excel file icon and Adobe Acrobat file icon.
Is this a bug of macOS Catalina? I just have it for pdf files, and my excel files are okay.
@flyseeksky it is indeed a bug of macOS Catalina, please see the instructions to report it to Apple.
Also experiencing this issue, and have been since the Catalina upgrade.
I only began using macOS and Keka shortly before Catalina was released (picked up a 2012 Mac Mini for a good price, and grabbed Keka from the App Store). Wish I'd found this thread earlier; I thought it was just me. Reported the issue to Apple per your instructions.
Thanks for your work!
Thanks @bradleybowman! I've checked 10.15.4 beta 5 last week and still has this issue. No word on the issues reported to Apple, sadly. It seems this will not be fixed in Catalina, maybe in 10.16.
Very interesting. I got this issue now too.
-Got a new Mac with Catalina pre-installed -Upgraded to latest Catalina version -Downloaded Archiver app (before found about Keka) -Zip file icons have Archiver's icon on top of the generic white document icon -Downloaded IINA media player -MKV file type icons appeared normally with IINA's MKV specific icon -Downloaded Submerge which changed all media files to open with it without asking the user -Changed MKV and other media files to open with IINA again -Now the MKV file type icon is the IINA app icon on top of the generic white document icon
I can change the MKV file type icon manually per file using Get Info but obviously it doesn't get changed across every MKV, only the selected one.
Very frustrating.
Submitted feedback to Apple using Feedback Assistant. Recommend others to do the same.
How can such a simple thing be broken so long?

Catalina reminds me of Lion... I'm just skipping it altogether, it only lives in a virtual machine. Mojave is pretty stable.
This may be a bug of Catalina. At present, my personal solution is to create a new account. The file ICONS with the suffix zip and docx can be displayed normally.
I also have this problem. IINA and Keka are both work incorrectly. Catalina is a PURE GARBAGE!
I got this solved using a little piece of software called RCDefaultApp. It's old and a bit buggy but does the job for me. You first install the preference panel, then goto Extensions tab, then for every file type that has the bad icon, choose <disable>
. It may then show another app is selected, but if you do $ killall Finder
the icon should be fixed.

RCDefaultApp dosn't work with Catalina. Or how it works?

It is really outdated but works for me, at least for this purpose.

How? I install it but Catalina won't open the App in the Settings. I only have the option move to the trash.

Try manually copying it to /Library/PreferencePanes
first, if doesn’t work try disabling gatekeeper: $ sudo spctl --master-disable
, if still doesn’t work disable SIP
👉 This seems will never be fixed in Catalina. Big Sur has this fixed anyway.
Original report:
I recently bought Keka from app store when I was using Mojave, I then made a clean install with Catalina and now the zip icon doesn't look right.
