How to fix Internet Explorer 7 Start menu Icon missing in Windows XP

Well there have been four XP pc’s that I’ve upgraded that the Internet Explorer Icon goes missing. I’m not sure what causes this because I’ve seen this happen to a fresh install. NOTE – This is only happens after upgrading to version 7. To fix the Icon missing you must follow these steps:

  • Go to START – Run
  • type “regedit”

Go to:

  • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\StartMenuInternet\IEXPLORE.EXE\DefaultIcon

If your icon is missing the default icon properties will look like this:

  1. C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe,-7.

What it should be is…

  • C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe,-32528

Reboot. Your icon will now be back. :)
