The Icons on my desktop and Programs have all changed to one Icon, that of my server.
After downloading pictures all the Icons on my desktop and Programs have changed to one Icon, that of my server. I am able to change to other Icons but only from a choice of about four. When I do this all the Icons and Programs change to the one I've chosen. When I right click on an Icon I can change to another program but all Icons and Programs change to that one.

Try to rebuild the Windows icon cache.
- Open the Task Manager (Shift+Ctrl+ESC)
- In the Process tab, right-click on the Explorer.exe process and select End Process.
- Open the file picker via "File > New Task (Run)" and click the Browse button.
- Type or Paste %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local in the File name field (AppData is a hidden folder).
- Select the file IconCache.db and use Delete in the right-click context menu to delete the file.
- After the IconCache.db has been deleted, start a new explorer.exe process via "File > New Task" to get the desktop and Taskbar back.
Verify in Windows Explorer that you can see the IconCache.db file before doing the above mentioned steps because the file IconCache.db may be a hidden file.
