You can modify / remove the arrow or whatever. Maybe the Stop sign as well? Good luck

Thanks for replying and for your kind wishes, your link probably leads to a solution as well, much appreciated.

Absolutely !!!
It worked like a charm, completely correcting the problem in an instant, I think it took me just a few seconds to do as explained at that link and whooosh, all icons were restored at once.

After posting my help request I continued searching the web for solutions and everything I found required some Windows' Registry juggling and reboot/re-logging after that, which I can't do at this time, so J-F's solution (which requires none of that) has been miraculously ideal.

Thank you so much, J-F, I owe you one (more) and have a nice weekend.
