As the title of this thread says, Edge on this computer has only generic, globe looking icons. They are there whether I import them from a file or add then via the star.



Has anyone seen this, have a suggestion how to proceed?

If you click on one of the favorites and go to the site, when you come back is the default icon now showing?

Also, if you want to search the eleven forum via Google, this is the best method

Search query [SPACE] site:elevenforum.com

Just a note, most Web sites provide their own icon and that globe is the default when no such icon exists, can't be read or the page is not fully loaded. Example of the Favorites Toolbar in Firefox:

Many of the results I found regarding your favicons not showing, directed people to the following app.


The app hasn’t been updated since 2019 but that’s not to say that the “Generate missing favourite icons” feature won’t work.

Unfortunately as far as I know, Edge doesn’t have a default way of rebuilding Favicons less maybe deleting all site info, history/cache etc, from Edge

No help.

Compatibility EdgeManage is designed to work only with the so-called "legacy" version of Edge. It is not compatible with the new Chromium-based Edge.

I do appreciate your help so far though.

I now have the same problem on an old Acer Aspire Switch 11. It's a 32 bit system so it couldn't be any different from the Dell system I posted this problem for. It's running Windows 10 home 23H2, same as the Dell.

It's not fixed, and now I have it on a HP All-in-one that I just did a clean install of Windows 10 Home on.
Intel Celeron 1.2 Ghz, 4GB Ram, Intel HD Graphics, 1600 x 900 x 59 hertz.

I'm in the process of doing another clean install of Windows 11 on the Dell PC.

I'd never seen this before and now I have it on 3 PCs. Microsoft has done something that is causing this.

Sometimes clearing the browser history/cache will lose the icon and get the generic until resaved.
