Hi, I've recently been trying to figure out why this has happened. I am getting black boxes as my desktop icons. Here is an example of what I am talking about.

I have tried using the safe boot, and it works but I cannot change any of my settings then and when I take it off and restart my computer, they become black again. I have also tried typing these 3 codes into cmd.
Code:
taskkill /IM explorer.exe /F
DEL "%localappdata%\IconCache.db" /A
shutdown /r /f /t 00
and it works, but when I restart my computer they become black again. I have also tried deleting the shortcut and recreating it. I am very annoyed by this, someone please put out some good suggestions on how to fix this.

[More Info] I am running windows 7 Ultimate. The shortcuts still work, they are just black. This happened after I had tried to type this into the java runtime parameters to allocate more RAM usage to java (I do not know if this is what caused it)-
Code:
-Xms1024M -Xmx2048M -jar
 
What happened?

You have to right click on command prompt and run it as an administrator.

Then you have type it in with the space.
