I'm not sure why but some of my shortcuts have started appearing with he Microsoft edge logo instead and it doesn't bother me too much I'm just curious as to why this has happened and if it is affecting the files of these games? Thanks

Hi again , does this remove data from my games / apps . Thanks
 
Is Internet Explorer set as the default browser?
How old are the sites which the url point to? It may be they require IE rather than Edge.
Have you tried creating the shortcut to the site again using Edge?

And the apps have the one drive log on the bottom so im not sure if it is a clooud issue
 
Download Check Browsers LNK Save the program to your desktop.
Right click run as admin.
A log named Check_Browsers_LNK.log
Will appear on the desktop.


Then download Clear Lnk save to your desktop.
Drag the log created by Check Browsers LNK onto ClearLNK
Reboot your machine and check the issue.

Which app is being used via Steam?
If they have the OneDrive logo then they may be on OneDrive & not on the pc, ensure the setting to keep on the pc as well as OD is on.
