missing hard drive C (local drive) icon

I've tried software, editing my resgitry to no avail. I cannot get the
correct icon to show for this drive. Can anyone help me to get the correct
icon back please?

Hi,

Well what did you do to change it?
Perhaps "System Restore" might fix it.

If I do that won't I lose everything?

System Restore does not destroy personal files or settings.
