I just don't understand why some icons appear different than others. While some appear "normal", others look more like thumbnails. Pic below is an example:
Both of the above are shortcuts from apps in Program Files. I played around with the icon on the left and made sure it was a 256x256 and it appeared exactly as you see it now.
So much depends on the type of folder the icon appears/made, but I just can't figure why icons like the one on the right can't appear everywhere.
Any help understanding this icon behavior would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
