Make sure that some other program hasn't taken over the file types

it might be helpful to add that my friend only uses her computer with

Right-click (or control-click) on one of the icons in question, and

my guess is that she is having problems opening them too, but i won't
know until later tonight. if that is the case, is there anything that

The main issue here is what exactly the user means by corrupted
Icons
