If you go to the shortcut location and change the Icon Image I think that should work, you might have to repin them to start for it to take. You will need replacement icons in the right format for it to work.

I am a paid professional, but only when I am at work...and getting paid.

It's called, "Classic shell". 

 

It's a free program that allows you to fully customize your start menu with different skins, layouts, and everything.

Very nice, no annoying pop-ups or anything, and it runs flawlessly on boot so you can just set it up and forget about it.

Solution : Switch to Vivaldi. Uninstall Origin. There, it's fixed.

Or just use classic shell. Because there's no other way to customize those icons.

I agreed with the first line. Not the second line. :(.
