MrBear5587 Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 Was using the PC, screensaver came on so I moved the mouse quickly, to avoid logging in again, and this is what i get (see attached screenshot). Win XP SP2, installed Firefox for the first time 1hr ago (doubt its related to that though). Whats going on o_O Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/242143-wtf-all-my-icons-have-disappeared/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
XP_01 Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 wow that's a first for me. Did you try restarting your pc? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/242143-wtf-all-my-icons-have-disappeared/#findComment-584893042 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eversurf Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 Might just be the shell. Run a repair on internet explorer. ADD/Remove programs Have fun!!!

KayMan2K Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 LOL! Does it still happen after you restart your computer? Looks like something got messed up with Window's icon cache. Try using TweakUI to rebuild all icons, that might work.

Old Man Pickle Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 I had the same thing happen to me once (with SP1), quilcky moved my mouse to stop the screensaver so I didn't have to log in. A restart did the trick. Wierd though :unsure: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/242143-wtf-all-my-icons-have-disappeared/#findComment-584893053 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBear5587 Posted November 9, 2004 Author Share Posted November 9, 2004 This is weird o.O Yeah, tried repairing, still the same - got no logon pictures either on the XP welcome screen lol.

MrBear5587 Posted November 9, 2004 Author Share Posted November 9, 2004 Tweak UI seems to have done the trick, lol. Kinda curious to how that happened in the first place.
