Windows: VS Code File icons are missing #105681

.ipynb always has blank icon, even after setting file association like *.ipynb python. I guess this is caused by vscode has no icon files for that.

is it possible to enhance the icon of the associated file or by some extensions?

aeschli commented 3 years ago

With black icon you mean the default icon?

But associating the extension to python works for me:

Can file an issue against https://github.com/jesseweed/seti-ui to add a nice icon for Jupiter notebook files?

No, It's the desktop icon, not in the vscode explorer.

on win 10

Not sure that a missing desktop icon is VSCode's fault @joaomoreno ?

NewUserHa commented 3 years ago

win use the exe resources of the associated program to display a desktop icon, so it should be a vscode's issue.

Should this issue keep open, if the issue has been verified? @aeschli @RMacfarlane

joaomoreno commented 3 years ago

Can you show me a screenshot of the broken icon?

joaomoreno commented 3 years ago

Can you reproduce with other file extensions? Eg .js?

I'm going to err on the side of caution and assume this is semi-related enough to go here (and if not, I'll be glad to open a different issue so do let me know)

.code-workspace files are also not automatically associated and don't get an icon. I had to tell it specifically to use VSCode after doubleclicking one, and it gets a generic icon

I'm also very curious if I have the correct windows file icons for VSCode files. Watching some YT tutorial vids I see others who use VSCode have different (Windows) file icons than me and if there is anything I can do to fix this if it is on my end?

Screenshots of my windows icons: explorer_sezZZ40npV explorer_HrnmPY1NN0

Screenshots of the others' windows icons from YT vids: msedge_RqdDkGCiRN

Same file types but different windows icons? This is also the same with other coding file types like javascript and others that use VSCode. They are all just a blank page icon like I've shown above. If anyone has any ideas or help with this please let me know.

Getting the same issue rn. Any solutions?

I am having also this issue, I hope it be fixed because it is really easier to know what language is that from the icon (it is not working in any language)
