Before I found this really wonderful guide, I tried to fix the issue by adding a shortcut of the programs to the Global Start Menu Programs folder %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
(interestingly when I pasted those shortcuts in the User start menu folder %AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Men\Programs
i didn't get the same result), the icons of the program were off, and I faced problems like icons becoming blank when I pin them to the taskbar.
Hey!, I started to face the same issues with my Start Menu when I installed Google Drive for desktop, I Uninstalled Google Drive for desktop and restarted my computer but it didn't fix the issue. I have downloaded the “windows-10-missing-search-icons.zip”, i ran the repair.py and got the same error which was faced in Issue "Error when executing repair.py" after I changed the directory to the appropriate one in Line 24 of the python file as advised in the Issue, I get a different error now-
After this, i tried to fix the Microsoft News icon Manually
1) So I went to the WindowsApp folder
C:/Program Files/WindowsApps
2) I found multiple folders that had Bing News in their name
I decided to go to:
“Microsoft.BingNews_4.54.22741.0_neutral_split.scale-125_8wekyb3d8bbwe\Assets\AppTiles”
3) I copied and pasted the file named
“NewsStoreLogo.scale-125.png”
to the Desktop and renamed it to“Microsoft.BingNews_4.54.22741.0_neutral_split.scale-125_8wekyb3d8bbwe”
4) I then moved this file to
“C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.Search_cw5n1h2txyewy\LocalState\AppIconCache\125”
5) I then restarted win explorer and unfortunately, nothing changed
Am I doing something wrong? Thanks!!,
