Quick overview:
Your recycle bin has been emptied, but the icon still shows "full"? The "Computer" icon has suddenly turned into the "Media Player" icon? There is probably a problem with the so-called cache for icons/symbols. The solution is obvious:
- Öffnen Sie "Computer" und Ihr Windows-Laufwerk (meist C:). Öffnen Sie "Benutzer\Benutzername\AppData\local".
- Löschen Sie hier die Datei "iconcache.db" und starten Sie den Rechner neu.
Hinweis: Sie sehen die Datei nicht? Öffnen Sie "Computer" und drücken Sie "ALT". Klicken Sie nun auf "Extras/Ordneroptionen/Ansicht". Entfernen Sie das Häkchen vor "Geschützte Systemdateien ausblenden" und markieren Sie "Alle Dateien und Ordner anzeigen"!
Ich hoffe, dass ich Ihnen mit dem Tipp helfen konnte!
