Sorry for the duplicate but the previous topic was closed before I can reply. (You can delete it if you want) I probably explained myself badly. I was referring to the trainers icons (the blue globes) which suddenly changed. Previously they were the same as the icon of Aurora.

Do the icons still work? This likely has to do with your default app for opening URL type links which is what Aurora links look like. It's possible that they originally had a CH icon but changed either with Aurora update or maybe a change in your default app or it could simply be a caching issue. I would recommend you open each link, see if it launches Aurora (if it asks if that is the default app for that particular link say YES) and just by doing that it MIGHT fix it. You can also try making new links from Aurora and see what icon you get. Lots of possibilities here. Maybe 0x90 knows how to force Windows to use the Aurora logo for these link types.

Yes, the icons works and opens Aurora correctly. I tried to change the icon by taking it from the Aurora.EXE file but it had no effect. But trying to choose one of the default Windows icons works. The problem only occurs with the Aurora icon.😕

It looks like you created the icons and then changed the Aurora.exe path. Thus these shortcuts fall back by using the default URL icon. The shortcuts still work because they execute a command which does not depend on Aurora.exe path but the icon does.
Either edit them with a text editor or delete and create them again from Aurora.

Unfortunately I did not change Aurora's path and I have already tried to recreate them from Aurora. I thought it was caused by an Aurora or Windows update but it seems that I am the only one to have this problem.

Which OS? What is the path of Aurora? Is it on a network drive or something?
If you open the shortcut in a text editor there is a "IconFile=" line which should point to Aurora.exe, make sure the path is correct.

Windows 10 x64 The path is D:\games\Aurora D is the second SSD that I use as storage drive for all games installed. The icon's path point to %SystemRoot%\System32\SHELL32.dll but if I try to change it to aurora.exe is always ignored.

No, not the icon path (if you right click on the file -> properties). What I meant is that you open the shortcut file in a text editor like Notepad and look for the line starting with "IconFile=".
Maybe its easier if I help you with the remote control software AnyDesk. Send me a PM if you like.
