Hi, i've a weird problem, all the the folders in yellow are corrupted, with a strange shadow, sometimes one folder (middle one) has the correct render, with directory opus the folders are displayed correctly, i'm sick and tired of this problem, i cannot be the only one with this problem. Deleting che cache, iconcache.db, ect did not help

good render

The only thing I have found that explains it is there are different folder icon based on owner.
If you select properties, security on the 'bad rendered' folders there is a warning about not having read permission, whereas the other type of shaded folder allows you to see the security settings.
So the 'bad rendered' folders are different by design to show folders the OS considers too important to mess with and this is not a bug or issue.

Hi, I do not have any warning about permission, and the problem is present in ALL the folders, usb storate folders too...and if i select the folders dimension, from "big icons" to "very big icons", the problem disappear, then, from "very big icons" to "big icons" after a refresh they are "corrupted" again
