Application Icons not showing

Post by meaganmargaret »

I have office2024 installed on Fedora (WS 43), and Textmaker et al load and run, but the textmaker file on the desktop is all white/blank and does not have an icon that represents the application correctly. Planmaker and Presentations present the same, on the desktop white/blank. Hard to tell them apart.

I looked into the desktop setting file:
Version=1.0
Name=TextMaker 2024
Icon=application-x-tml24
TryExec=/usr/bin/textmaker24
StartupWMClass=tm
Exec=/usr/bin/textmaker24 %F
Path=/usr/share/office2024

But, no luck. Would a reinstall work? Has anyone had this problem? Or has anyone figured this out? Any ideas out there?

I am a paid and licensed owner of Office 2024. I am on a Asus Z790-plus computer with 64GB of RAM, CPU is 147000k.

I have the same issue under Kubuntu 26.04

I've changed the application icons as follows, which takes care of showing them correctly in the Application Launcher and in the Task Manager:
  • textmaker-nx.desktop: Icon=application-vnd.ms-word.document.macroEnabled.12
  • planmaker-nx.desktop: Icon=application-excel
  • presentations-nx.desktop: Icon=application-mspowerpoint
For the file icons, I haven't found a solution yet. When I change the icons for *.pmdx, *.tmdx, or *.prdx in the "File Associations" panel in the "System Settings" under KDE, they are automatically reverted back to the blank icons shortly after... It's the strangest thing.
