Windows 7: Missing half icon

Missing half icon

Greetings.

After rebooting my computer, my program shortcuts in desktop don't show the whole icon, but only 1/4 of its original image. As you can see below. This doesn't affect on documents or folder, but only programs. I have tried to restore the system to an earlier point and used files named Add_Computer_Desktop_Icon and Remove_Shortcut_Arrow, but it doesn't solve the issue. Please Help

Thank You
Lee

Navigate to the .exe files for each program and create new desktop shortcuts from them. You can also try rebuilding the iconcache.

Also, if you boot into another account on your computer, do the icons look fine?

Sorry for my absurdness, what does navigate to exe.file mean? Where in the folder should i look after?
