Hi,

Are they available in the "Add remove programs" page in Control Panel > Programs?


OS

Hi

If like Orbital Shark said they are still in your "Add remove programs" page in Control Panel > Programs? page it looks more like an icon issue.You could try this http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/49819-icon-cache-rebuild.html

I had this issue with one (just one, though) of my icons a few days ago; the only difference being that I just had the 'blank page' icon as shown in ash30000's 2nd post. I 'fixed' it by recreating the shortcut (delete the one with no icon, then make a new one).

Hi CreepinJesus
Thanks for the idea but as shown in the pic bellow it is not just shortcuts.
(note i have edited the regestory so that the windows aero glass is completly clear see the pic bellow)

I would try a system restore to before you had this problem or before you edited the registry to see if that puts your icons back http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/700-system-restore.html

This method usually helps me, unless it is more than a few programs.
