Shortcut icons are Windows defualt icon

[ju.c]

All shortcuts in Explorer are the Windows default icon. The Start Menu
and Desktop shortcuts are fine. Also, some folders such as "History" and
"Temporary Internet Files" are the Windows default icon. I've deleted the
Icon Cache, which did nothing. What else can I try? Thanks.

Shortcut arrows?

You misunderstand the question.

I fixed the problem by creating this batch file, (deleting it using
explorer didn't work) running it then restarting:

attrib -s -h "C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Local\IconCache.db"
del "C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Local\IconCache.db"
pause
