Unlock special icons

Some icons in the Special section may require you to complete an action before you can use them.

For example, if you set Firefox as your default browser and also pin the browser, you’ll unlock bonus icons.

Note: The new icon will only be available on the taskbar, desktop and Start menu. The desktop launcher icon will not update.

Enabling a custom browser icon may add a shortcut to your Start Menu Program folder.
