Classic Shell: Forum

Hi,

I don't know what I done wrong. When I create desktop shortcut for game, from steam, game icon is ok. But when I move in to classic shell start menu is white. Few months go I had this bug. But after update he gone.

How are you moving it to the Start menu? Drag and drop or copy-paste?

This doesn't look like a screenshot from the start menu.

I copy or move from desktop.

Exit the Classic Start Menu by right clicking on the Start button -> Exit.

Then, in File Explorer, go to this folder: %localappdata%\ClassicShell\ (C:\Users\<your user name>\AppData\Local\ClassicShell).

Delete the file named DataCache.db. Now launch the Start Menu again by running:
C:\Program Files\Classic Shell\ClassicStartMenu.exe

Do the Steam game icons return now?

Nope :/

One possibility is that you are copy-pasting them into the Games Explorer folder which has a tendency to break the icons. Make sure your Games folder inside All Programs is a normal folder at C:\Users\<your user name>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Games.

If it is this Games folder, then it's a Windows bug:

It's not windows games folder. It's my foler which I created in Classic Shell start menu. Only shortcuts form steam are broken. But when I right click on them and check poprerties game icon is fine.
