--- Comment #4 from LigH <cont...@ligh.de> ---
I believe this bug report is related to the effect I experienced on two
different PCs (one with a german Windows 7 Pro SP1 32-bit, another with a
german Windows 7 Ultra SP1 64-bit), but there are other PCs where it doesn't
happen and the icon is all fine.

After updating a previous installation of LibreOffice 4.2.x to 4.3.x, the
desktop icon of the LibreOffice 4.3 link is broken on the few affected PCs in a
way that it cannot be restored. In the Explorer, a directory listing shows the
correct icon for soffice.exe, but trying to use soffice.exe as source for the
icon of the desktop link results in the generic icon of a generic executable
without internal application icon.

I can edit the link and change the icon so that the icon is derived from
quickstart.exe (one may have to confirm to apply administrative access rights);
then the expected gray LibreOffice icon is displayed.

If I change the desktop link back so that its icon is derived from soffice.exe
again, the gray LibreOffice is displayed in the icon selection dialog and in
the link properties dialog; but when I apply the icon exchange, the generic
application icon is displayed on the desktop again.

The same broken state persists if I move the icon from C:\Users\Public\Desktop
elsewhere and try to change it there. But when I create a new link from
soffice.exe, rename it to "LibreOffice 4.3.lnk", and move it back to the public
desktop, the correct icon persists. But this link lacks the additional
information (about the application) of the installer-generated icon.
