    I switched from Chrome to Edge only because of the yellow-colored folder on my favorites bar. Now that has also changed to transparent!

    I had this very same thing happen as well, just as you described. I did the same things you did with same results.

    Another PC and a Surface Go now also have the same issue - it seems to be "spreading"

    Now on Edge Version 131.0.2903.112 (Official build) (64-bit)

    Windows 11 24H2 with various graphics cards (Intel, Intel Arc and nVidia) have now gone from yellow folder icons to outlines, which are almost invisible with some themes.

    Have done SFC /ScanNow which shows no errors and DISM /Online /Cleanup-image which has not fixed it. Also cleared the icon cache in case that was causing the problem.

    Reported through Edge feedback (pointing to this thread as well) - suggest others do the same to make sure that Microsoft see that there is a wider issue.

    Although I am still on Windows 10, I have the same problem which materialized after MS inserted a page into my Edge browser addressing "Microsoft Edge Year in Review." After cycling through those pages, my Edge folders on the toolbar changed from yellow to white with a black outline. The links in my folders, however, still work. I haven't been able to change the folder icons back to yellow. This occurred this morning, 12/20/2024.
