Could someone help me please?
My folder icons have disappeared, but only for sub-folders. To demonstrate what I mean:

Here are my main folders, I've used my music as an example, the icons are visible:

But when viewing folders within folders, ie, the sub-folders within my sims 4 folder, the folder icons have disappeared; note how the folder icons for saves and tray aren't visible:

The file explorer icon has also become invisible on my taskbar, appearing as a black square, as are some of these icons:

Could someone help please? I was just backing up my files just now when I suddenly noticed it.

    Also, usually when I do a virus scan it scans about 650,000 files. I'm doing one now and it's up to 1,270,000 files. Something's not right.

    Update: I ran system restore and restored it to a week ago. Seems to have solved the problem but I'm wondering if it (and the huge number of new files) is something to do with the windows update that's wanting to install.

    That's odd. Did you accidentally disrupt a previous update or something?

    Nope. I think the new update to help fix the intel chip security flaw might have had something to do with it. A system restore sorted out my folder icons though. :)
