Some of my Icons on the desktop an all icons in File Explorer are covered in a NEW PAGE icon












0














I have tried EVERYTHING. Deleted the iconcache.db, set it to READ ONLY, deleted everything in C:Users%username%AppDataLocalMicrosoftWindowsExplorer after I stopped explorer and performed this action in a cmd prompt, restarted the computer dozens of times and yet, after only a few minutes, all the normal folder, file type and some of my desktop icons have a "New Page" icon over it with the upper right corner turned down.



I don't know what else to do.



Please see all the pictures depicting what is happening.



The affected drives are the external drives and C:Users...




  1. Picture 1 - Drives on My Machine with descriptions and locations

  2. Picture 2 - Windows Explorer showing problems with different drives

  3. Picture 3 - Second picture showing problems with different drives

  4. Picture 4 - Left side of Windows Explorer ICONS only close-up


If ANYONE can help me, I'd greatly appreciate it.



OF NOTE: This doesn't happen on my work or personal laptop.
