context menu icon

[hartofalyon]

i noticed something strange today. the context menu icon of 'personalize' when you right click on desktop has changed. in my case, it changed to the notepad++ icon. not sure what is causing this and what's to blame. i've uninstalled notepad++ as well as looked for any shell registry keys with notepad++. no luck. anyone knows what's going on?

attached screen.

That is very strange and I have never seen that happen before. It might just be a graphic glitch. Have you tried restarting your computer and seeing if it's still there?

yeah, i tried restarting several times, no luck.

windows 7 ultimate btw.

Hello Hartofalyon, and welcome to Seven Forums.

You might see if rebuilding the icon index may help.

Hope this helps,
