Steps to reproduce:
I allowed Thunderbird to update to the lastest version.
--- Steps I've already tried to fix it ---
- Reboot
- Restart Explorer from the Task Manager
- Cleared Temp files
- Deleted Icon cache
- Followed all methods here: https://thegeekpage.com/fix-taskbar-icons-missing-windows-10/
- Gone to the Start menu icon (which appears correctly) changed it to a different Thunderbird icon.
- Gone to the Start menu icon (which appears correctly) changed it to a different icon completely.
--- Strange Happening ---
If I unpin from taskbar and TB is open, the icon turns into the TB icon. But, as soon as I pin it back, it goes back to the generic icon.
Actual results:
After the update, the Windows taskbar (not the system tray) icon is a generic white 'paper' icon, not the standard Thunderbird logo.
Expected results:
I should see the Thunderbird logo instead of a generic logo.
I have similar behavior about the TB icon on the taskbar under Windows 10 (64 bits) latest version, TB 91.6.0 (32 bits).
Every 2 or 3 months or so, TB blue and white icon turns into a mere white rectangular icon (generic icon as displayed above).
A couple of days after, the generic icon disappears.
I can drop again the TB icon (from the start menu) into the taskbar (auto hide). But it shows (pop-up) an additional number.
This number managed to be in an incremental mode. Today I experience "Thunderbird (7)".
Not really critical, but strange.
I hope I'm not running 7 Thunderbird instances at the same time.
Similar but problem first start with latest update 91.8 , all other before was fine
Windows latest build 10.0.19044 21H2 1645 64b
