Hello, the newfangled Windows makes PDF and docx icons look white and blue and almost the same. Changing an icon appearance used to be a simple right click. But the customize option seems to be gone. The one solution I found was ineffectual, or I don't know how to do it. Thoughts?

It appears that the images above are both thumbnails, not document icons.

I think this is the solution: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...1-ea6bd9fea399
