Here's how it looks:

 

 

I've looked in its folder and the icon is there. I've uninstalled and reinstalled a couple of times with no luck.

I was able to fix it by following the instructions at this page:

Hey, @oakland_Mike. Welcome to the Lightroom Classic Community. I'll help you with this. 

 

You can right-click (CMD+click) at the Lightroom Classic icon on the Dock & remove it. Once removed, go to Finder > Applications > Adobe Lightroom Classic & launch it.

When Lightroom Classic launches, its icon will surface on the Dock again. Right-click (CMD+Click) and select 'Add to dock'. 

 

Let me know how it goes. Thanks!

Sameer, thank you for your suggestion. I should have mentioned that I tried that already and it doesn't change the icon.

 

I've also deleted the blank icon from the dock, then dragged the correct Lightroom Classic icon from the Applications folder to the dock and then opened it with that icon, but it stays blank.
