Some Folder Icons Have Black Background

Jan 30, 2016

I think since the latest Windows 10 update some of my icons have a black background to them, sometimes they don't *update*.

What could be causing this? I've tried deleting the thumbnail cache using CCleaner and Disk Cleaner but that didn't seem to work.

I had this Folder that has a Black Square behind it. I tried refreshing and it didn't work. I tried moving my files from that folder into another it worked. Deleting it and After refreshing, 4 folders have been affected by this problem.Here is a screenshot of what It looks like. Folder Icons are Enclosed in Black Squares.I'm on Windows 10 by the way.Also, I have done the following things I've seen that cured problems slightly like mine:

1. Create a New User Profile. This worked for a few hours and It happened again with some folders.
2. I also tried resetting my Windows installation. Keeping files in my pc and just the programs and windows installation are new.

Customization :: How To Add Folder Background

Aug 7, 2015

I recently upgraded my windows 7 ultimate copy to Win 10 pro (64 bit) and with the upgrade i lost the most beloved tweak that i was using earlier in Win 7. And that is the ability to have custom backgrounds on folders instead of plain white ones.

The Ave Folder actually works but only when the properties boxwindows is opens up for any folder. The properties box has the custom new tab called "folder background" and i think this is why it activates the feature for a brief time until i decide to close the box. Closing the properties windowox then disables it and i then lose my folder background.

Desktop Background Goes Black At Random Since Last Update

Jan 14, 2016

I did a Windows Update 3-4 days ago ever since my desktop background goes black at random. It also goes black if I click a desktop icon or if I use the highlight tool on my mouse. When I was doing the update it got stuck on restarting and I had to force shutdown my computer. I was thinking about using system restore.

Explorer Auto Scrolls To Top Of Folder Whenever Background Changes

Sep 5, 2015

Why windows explorer would constantly reset itself to the top of a folder regardless of what action is being performed. Became incredibly infuriating when trying to organize and rename a bunch of folders and files, as it would cancel anything I may be typing and snap back to the top of the folder.

Traced the cause to happen once every minute, which also happens to be the timer for my background to change. Checked it out, and sure enough, when the background changed, windows explorer would reset to the top of the folder. Any way to stop this from happening, not including the idea of turning up the timer? I'm fine with my background changing less frequently, but it still doesn't solve the fact that it will still happen whenever it decides to cycle over.

Customization :: While Video Playing In One Window All Other Windows And Background Turns Black And White

Jan 1, 2016

while playing video (using any software media player, movies & tv, internet explorer youtube, google chrome youtube, vlan), all other inactive windows (any other windows) turn blank and white. I have updated video drivers, did not make a difference. I have then uninstalled all video card driver and used only default windows drivers, played video with same result. Therefore, I am sure it is windows. Tonight while trying to watch the bowl games, I typically watch video and browse/study using IE/Chrome. This is pretty typical for me, but the browser windows turning black and white is getting really annoying.

Settings Notifications Icons Black Squares

Nov 16, 2015

Since the November update I've found my icons in Settings / Notifications 'Show notifications from these apps' are black squares.

I've tried deleting and rebuilding the icon and thumbnail caches, rebooted and still have the same.

Before the update they were fine and I've not noticed any other icons show the same.

Any way to clear or refresh these icons ?

Customization :: Changing Folder Icons

Aug 8, 2015

So as many people may agree, the icons in Windows 10 look absolutely hideous.I have found an Icon pack I would like to use & I have successfully changed Icons such as Recycle Bin, My PC, My Network but when it comes to the Documents, Movies, Pictures, Download folders they simply won't change.

Is there something that needs to be done in addition other than right clicking the folder I wish to change - customise - choose file 'select icon'

Customization :: Fixed Folder Icons For OneDrive And Podcasts

Aug 14, 2015

What my user folders looked like at first: Notice how the OneDrive and Podcasts folders stick out due to the Windows 7/8-style folders icons. So I found an alternative OneDrive icon in the image shell32.dll in C:Windows, extracted it and used that one (Windows 10-style icon). Then I created my own podcasts icon. I used the Windows 10-style folder paired with the Zune podcast icon to create my own custom icon. Here's the end result:

All of the folders match, now!!If you're interested in getting your hands on these folder .ico files yourself,

1) Download the ico files to a permanent location

2) Start with C: then navigate to the parent folder of the folder you want to customize (like C:Users[USERFOLDER])

1. Right click the folder, select Properties

2. Select the Customize tab

3. Click "Change icon..."

4. Then click "Browse..." and find where you saved your .ico file, and select it

5. Click OK.

Computer Restarted With Black Screen Which Later Turned Into Desktop With No Icons And Flashing

Dec 1, 2015

So I have a bit of a problem where my screen flashes, I instantly thought it was display drivers so I uninstalled them only to worsen the problem, the computer restarted with a black screen which later turned into a desktop screen with no icons and a flashing screen (can't click anything or even load up the start menu with the windows key). I put it into safe mode but it does the same thing. Nothing works except task manager and i can't run task from it or it will exit out, system restore doesn't fix the issue either. Computer is a lenovo k450 i5-4440 8gb ram 1tb hdd with an evga gtx 760.

BSOD Then Swaps Background And Same Background As Main Desktop

Jan 7, 2016

My windows 10 Alienware laptop randomly blue screened and its not to shocking seeing, as all our windows 10 computers seem to bluescreen like its going out of style. but I googled the error tag and proceeded to fix it. The error was a Nvidia driver outdated and I then updated.

But I realized my background changed and to my horror was the same background as my primary PC (desktop gaming rig) There are a few ways the laptop and the desktop are connected Steam Geforce etc/Im a little concerned because I'm almost positive I have never once downloaded the same wallpaper on this laptop. and why it would steal my desktops wallpaper and replace it after BSOD I dont understand.

the BSOD was "System Thread Exception Not Handled".Here is the first set of my dxdiag.txt right after the bluescreen. too much text for an upload site
