No Icons Visible

[Cadbury145]

Hi,

This problem started today, where I have no icons, and I also cannot open the Start Menu. On my desktop shortcuts, all I can see is the text, but not the shortcut icon. This is also the same for my folder icons, where I can just see the name.

I have tried rebuilding the cache file and rebooting.

If anyone can help me with this, I will be grateful.

As I said, I have already tried rebuilding the icon cache, and nothing happens.

Sorry after reading it again you could have a virus. Have you tried safe mode??

I will have a quick look at safe mode and see if the icons work. I will reply to say whether they do or not.

I would boot into safe mode, disconnect your computer from the network and do some scans.

1) Run ccleaner on it CCleaner - Optimization and Cleaning - Free Download
2) Run malwarebytes Malwarebytes : Free anti-malware, anti-virus and spyware removal download
3) Run your AV scan
