I noticed that my Windows application shortcut icons were showing the default, “no type associated” icons for all of the Office-related documents. I could double-click one of these (such as a .pptx or .xls file) and it would open in the correct application, so the shortcut itself was working.. but the icons were the generic Windows icon:
Step to solve the missing ms office icons .
Click ----- Start ----> All programs ---> ms Office
---> ms Office Tools ---> Click – ms Office Picture manager
Then – >> click Help ---> click –Detect and repair.
Option --- “restore my shortcut manager while repairing” box (check)
This should restore all icons back.
---- “ End “ ---
