Associated Applications Viewer Icon

Question

Hi all- 
 New administrator with a question regarding how to customize the associated applications viewer icon. 
 CM10.1 
 Windows 11 
 I have a user that reports the icon for Publisher (PUB) is using a generic icon vs the MS icon associated with the product. I have confirmed that toggling to the associated application in the viewer customization does not change the icon. Is there a "trick" to change the icon or a way to update the icon from the generic paper with paperclip icon.

Hi Jennifer, 
 Looks like its the particular CM Version 
 
 Can't explicitly call the 'version range' but there was a period where the icons were streamlined to make them more inline with how the icons present in the WebClient. This looks to be the case with your exact 10.1 version as you can see the Word and Excel icons aren't exactly the same as the desktop icons either. 
 From memory, due to feedback, it was swapped back. Below is a screenshot from my 23.4 environment where the icons in CM now match the desktop icons again 100%. 
 
 EDIT: Managed to find a previous thread. CM10.1 Document Icon display Looks like 10.1 Patch 2 may have the icons swapped back from one of Shiela's answers

Hi Jennifer Moore I believe this is the default behaviour when an application is not actually installed on the device, does the user actually have the application installed on their client PC ?
