So I did a BIOS update and restarted my PC and my icons in context menu and File Explorer are now invisible. What can I do? image image

BIOS update has nothing to do with it, try restarting Explorer

I already did and also restarted my PC multiple times 😔

Check if you have correct icons in C:\SystemApps\MicrosoftWindows.Client.Core_cw5n1h2txyewy\FileExplorerExtensions\Assets\images\contrast-standard or (and) in C:\SystemApps\MicrosoftWindows.Client.FileExp_cw5n1h2txyewy\FileExplorerExtensions\Assets\images\contrast-standard

These are all the icons I have in those folders @krlvm image

The icons are in SVG format, do you have any of those there?

Sorry for the late reply, but I eventually did a clean install because I just didn't want to bother with fixing it. Could you please tell me the exact folders I should back up in case it eventually happens again so I can restore the icons? Alternatively, can you push a new update that automatically backs up the icons in case something like this happens so they can be restored?

I don't think AccentColorizer-E11 is the cause of the problem because it does not delete icon files, it opens them in edit mode.
