Is it not just a different type of notification?

You don't have "reply" button and field on second one.

Can you clear notifications and send message to yourself again?

it is a example, before (yesterday) DM and channels will have avatar, now every notifications don't have avatar. this problem appeared for a long time, i tried Unigram on muitiple computers and most of them won't have avatar after some days

I will try to reinstall Unigram, see if it will work

@NalCol Technically this will help, but that is not the issue. You have "+2 other" notifications from Unigram, that's why you don't have avatar, because it's a list, not a single message.

No, the notification will pop out, and it won't have avatar too. it is not a problem of list

My Unigram is from store, I found a most possible reason of this bug just now I tried to move back Unigram from D: to C: ( the disk installed Windows ) and it works! now avatar show up as usual.

Why the bug appears

I think it is a path bug lead the avatar resource can't be found by Notification Center If you move the app, the AppData file will be stored in Disk:\WpSystem
Not same path with the OS Installed disk.

Possible way to fix it

move back Unigram from D: to C: ( the disk installed Windows )

Unfortunately I have no control over system shell, so I believe that this issue must be addressed to Microsoft, and not to us. The app obviously uses the special path format requested by the system when showing a notification: NotificationsService.cs#L449

At least everybody know why it isn't working now :)
