I'm about ready to run screaming into the night with what could be a connected problem.  I've not found a fix yet.  I need to rebuild my icon cache in Windows 8.1 Pro.  I know where the iconcache*.db files are located: C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer\.  Most of my icons have been replaced by the plain vanilla, generic (blank sheet of paper) variety.  I'd muchly appreciate any guidance, wisdom, incantations, and/or any other assistance.  Bless you .... and no, I'm not slobbering all that badly .... yet .... <wink>
