Shorcut icons on homepage not showing up.

Attached below is a screenshot of my homepage for Firefox desktop (Windows 11). I have uBlock Origin, but it doesn't block anything on the homepage. I have two specific concerns:

  • I tried inputting both gmail.com and mail.google.com addresses for the URL of my shortcut, but it always displays a generic icon instead.
  • The YouTube icon isn't transparent.

I used the same layout/theme on a previous Windows 11 install and these two problems did not occur at all. What's the possible solution for this?

Hello

Indeed.

Note: The Root Directory stores user profile data such as bookmarks, passwords, and preference settings. The Local Directory stores the disk cache and other temporary data.

Take a look at your local directory and go to your thumbnails folder.
