Problem: Empty / noneexisting univention desktop-icons

Problem:

The desktop icons for Univention Portal and Univention Management Console on the Windows desktop are no longer assigned the UCS system icon as usual, but only “white pages”.

Windows 10 Education
Version 22H2 (Build 19045.3930)
Version 22H2 (Build 19045.4046)

Investigation:

This has been the case since the Windows update KB5028166 (07/23).
After uninstalling the update, the icons are present again.

Check cia powershell on the windwos client:
cat 'Univention Management Console.URL'If you find an IconFile and IconIndex then this is a windows problem.
