[SOLVED] Change in Desktop icon appearance - is this anything to worry about?
#1
Every now and then the appearance of LibreOffice and/or other icons changes on my Desktop screen. The new appearance may last a while, sometimes only a short time, but the icons always seem to revert back to their normal appearance. This link shows what happens sometimes on one of my laptops: https://imgur.com/a/u8uly

If you look at these two screenshots, the first shows the normal appearance of 3 x LibreOffice icons and 1 x *.jpg file.
The second picture shows the appearance they sometimes acquire on rebooting.

Has anyone else observed this?  Is it anything to worry about?

do you sometimes use lite tweaks to delete the thumbnail cache? because that's what that is. or your machine deletes them on its own for some reason.

Yes, I do use thumbnail tweaks. So, that explains it then. Thanks UltraCookie, you're a star. I knew someone out there on the LL forum would know ... Wink
