There's nothing to worry about, I have the same thing happen to me occasionally, if I have too many items in the taskbar; the file icons will be fine and then disappear and then load up again all together in a few seconds.

I don't get the problem if I have 6 or less programs on my taskbar at boot.

I think it is a matter of the speed of your system. On my desktop with an i7 and the OS on a SSD I never notice that. On an older laptop I do see it.

Seems the problem is elsewhere .

I experience the same thing and my system is a bit above the norm. In an attempt to locate the reason, I keep trying different settings and the like, but have not found a direct association, yet.
