Re: Weird icons on my classic start menu !!!

did you install a new theme? "windowblinds" maybe? the easiest thing to do would be to go back to your most recent restore point, or uninstall 3rd party themes and/or theme "utilities".

Try deleting "C:\Users\<Your name>\AppData\Local\IconCache.db" then Ctrl +
Shift + right click a blank area on Start and choose Exit Explorer. Press
Ctrl + Shift + Escape - File menu - New Task (Run) - and type explorer.

Which ones are supposed to be 'strange'. All look fairly standard
considering you are using a laptop.
