I have been seeing posts all over the net of the icons getting messed up in 10 and no one can find a way to force windows to refresh them.
When I dug in and took a look at my 10 in vmware because the icnons where gone in the start menu I found that there is an entire change to how things are done. The start menu, isnt part of explorer, it is an app now. So are most of what you see. From what it looks like MS is moving every thing they can that way, which is going to be horrible.
Normally explorer shows the icons, so when they mess up we delete the icon cache forcing explorer to refresh them. That doesnt work with the new interface, I couldnt find the cache anywhere and nothing I did would force it to go check for the icons again. The only icons that did show are the ones for apps. Any none app program installed and the icon was just white.
