Why does my documents folder icon keep shrinking to this tiny version? I have to do a disk cleanup every time I restart my computer to get it back to the normal icon.

My link to Terminal is shrinked too. Deleteing and ramaking it didn’t help

Relating to display scalling I’m aware. Tell me. What screen resolution are you using? Do you have more than one monitor?

Maybe you didn’t put enough “homework” in it ?

Have you tried unpinning all desktop icons and then restoring them to default? Go to Settings > Personalization > Themes > Desktop icon settings. Uncheck all icons then hit Apply. Once done, click on Restore Default and then select back the icons.

right click on empty desktop and click refresh, does that fix it?
You have to do a disk clean-up? That’s a pretty nuclear step for an icon being different.
It could just be cold outside, don’t judge.
Delete the shortcut and make a new one?
lol what’s the name of the folder that needed to be censored?
I’ve got two short cuts on my desktop right now that are doing this.
Check your resolution and dpi settings.

If that didn’t work, try to clear the thumbnail cache

and rebuild the icon cache using option two in the methods below

Why did you censor it? What dirty stuff do you have there?
No body shaming please. She define herself as “Homework folder”
