Taskbar Icons Won't Change (Suspect a Windows Update)

So I recently restored my computer and went to install all possible updates and now pinned taskbar icons can't be changed. I think it has to do with an update released sometime in the past month or two because I noticed my family computer also has this problem. So I restored mine back to factory and can change icons once again. I didn't install/modify anything apart from windows updates. Is anyone else experiencing this?

I've not experienced this, nor heard of anyone else who has. :think: Do you mean the icons for the loaded windows lined up on the Taskbar, or the icons of the programs showing within the System Tray?
