Hi Friedrich,

I know this has been beaten to death before, but I have a situation with
my client. We have completely changed all the icons in out
applications. They are all correct but windows is not refreshing the
silly cache, even when he uses the "Refresh desktop" function in SB - it
doesn't want to pull the correct icon for the *taskbar* so it shows the
generic "no-icon" icon!

I managed to clear the cache on my machine, but it is not something that
customers can be expected to do - it involved shutting Explorer down,
firing off a command line statement: ie4uinit.exe -ClearIconCache and
then starting explorer again! Found it here:
https://superuser.com/questions/4990...hout-rebooting
- answer 27 more and less worked for me along with the command line above!

Note that I'm on Windows 8.1 and he is on 10, but we have had the same
problem.

Is there any way to tell Windows to just throw out whatever junk it has
in the silly cache and rebuild it? Any insights will help!

Best regards,
