Issues with the Minecraft [launcher] icon on [Java]

Waiting For Solve

[Solved] Hi everyone !

Recently I decided to reboot my Pc, and when I tried to install Minecraft back on my Pc, the Icon of the launcher was not updating (see linked media), and when tI launch the game it is invisible in my tasksbar.

I first installed it from the Minecraft official website and noticed the icon issue, so I uninstalled it and tried a second time, but it didn't change anything. I also tried to install it from the microsoft store, which I could not do as it told me that it was already installed (eventhough I completely uninstalled it), and I also tried to install it from the XBox app, which did work but unfortunately didn't fix the icon either.

After some researches I tried the "verify and repair" option from the XBox app, but it didn't repair anything, and in addition, when I try to change the icon of the launcher from the propierties folder, it doesn't work because the option "change icon" is missing...

Do not get it wrong the launcher and the game both work well, the only problem comes from this unloaded icon. Which triggers me as I'm playing Minecraft for more than 12 years now with everything working well and from one day to the next something went wrong and I have no clue about how to fix that.

Please help me <3
