Hi guys,
Are there any users experiencing the white Windows icon of their Xbox Game Pass games showing up on their desktop? It seems to occur after a game update through the Xbox app or an Xbox app update via the Store. I came across a solution on Reddit, but it feels repetitive to have to fix this often...
Thanks.

What version(not edition) of Windows 11 are you on? If you have an update, I'd advise moving forward with said update. Perhaps see if a BIOS update is also pending for your platform.
I would look into these as a last resort;

Thanks for the reply! The issue seems specific to the icon cache, affecting only the Xbox app and its installed games. I’ve dealt with similar problems before, especially on Windows 10, and I’ve managed to resolve them using a script.
