Sorry, I have a problem. I want to change the VLC files icon because I don't like it. In the program's files I didn't found a real method to do that. Help please!

Yes, how do i get rid of the icon vlc put as icon of the music files?
It happend after the update, vlc took a picture from my google photos. Why?
I did not do anything to make that happend.
It's exstremly annoying!!!!
I cant find anything in "setting" that can change that. What to do?
I dont want to erase the vlc-app, but i Will if i cant decide what icon i can choose.
Why do vlc do this?

Really, no one knows nothing about this??
Is it only two that want to know how to do this?
That is really strange!

Um, yeah. I have had the same problem just today after uninstalling / reinstalling. (I opened some other program by accident and it fouled EVERYTHING up to where VLC was no longer the default. I decided a reinstall would be the quickest and most sensible approach, and was correct.) The icons are the only thing that didn't go right, but at least it works. I can't fathom though why the file associations would be made, but the icons not established in the process.
