rizalfauzi Your solution worked for me. Thank you!
- Spectre51Jul 21, 2022Copper ContributorThis works, and you can tuck the shortcuts away in another folder so you don't have to see them,
- psstatsJan 29, 2022Copper ContributorThanks, works well enough for Google to never fix 😉

rizalfauzi Sorry for the double response but I just found a slight tweak to your method that seems to work without the need to create the desktop shortcut.
1. Right click on taskbar icon
2. Right click on Google profile in menu list
3. Properties
4. Change Icon to google chrome icon. icon location %ProgramFiles%\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exeSeems to work but I'll report back if I have any issues.
