    Adobe changed it. There was an update. You probably need to get used to it, Adobe Knows Best.

    If you want to change that file icon on Windows, search your C drive for PDFFile_8.ico.

    Look for it being in a folder like C:\WINDOWS\Installer\{AC76BA86-7AD7-1033-7B44-AC0F074E4100}\PDFFile_8.ico

    (or just look for that folder directly, I don't  know if the folder name is always the same).

    Replace PDFFile_8.ico with an ico file you like. I found mine at Pdf Icons - Download 85 Free Pdf icons here

    You'll need to logout and back in or restart to see the changed icons.
