My Firefox icon is gone and replaced with a generic pic. How do I get it back
In Windows 7, several of my icons went missing and were replaced by the generic MS icon. Firefox is one of them. How do I get it back. Restore defaults did not work.

-> click Firefox button and click Exit
-> Start Firefox in Safe Mode by Holding down SHIFT key while starting Firefox
As an alternative method, press Win + R key combination and enter one of the following in the Windows Run box:
firefox -safe-mode "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -safe-mode
-> Firefox Safe Mode window will open -> DON'T SELECT ANY OPTIONS, just click Continue in Safe Mode button
Check and tell if its working again.
