Odd icon--"FS" started appearing on Win Explorer Task Bar Icons
I am posting in the hopes that someone will have some inkling why I am getting this. I'm including a screenshot of most of my taskbar at the bottom of my screen. OS is Win 7 x64, on a Toshiba laptop.
For some strange reason, four out of six Windows Explorer taskbar icons are showing up with a new icon with a blue box with "FS" on it, instead of the familiar folder icon. I don't know what this could be. For example, in a one folder, I have one open subfolder that shows up with the FS symbol, and another subfolder that shows with the usual folder symbol.
Just opened a new File Explorer window, the new window's Taskbar icon has the usual folder icon on it.
I have no idea how this happened, because I did nothing to try to change the Explorer icon. All folders seem to function in the same way, and I saw no ill effects that I could tell, or any effects other than the task bar icon. I did try to do a search on this phenomenon, but I came up with nothing. It was hard to know what to search on. I tried, "FS on Windows Explorer task bar icon."
Anyone have an idea what this may be or how it could have happened?
Thanks,
Michael
