Icon Property Issue
Description
Setting custom icons does not work as intended (at least in the favorites pane):
Setting a custom icon may cause the app to crash. But when you restart it the icon is set to the selected icon.
Changing the icon may generate a dialog stating the drive is unplugged when the folder being changed is a folder on the C: drive. After you close and re-open the app the icon is set to the desired icon.
-Tim C.
Steps To Reproduce
Goto favorites pane Right click folder Change icon property
Expected behavior
expect icon to change
Files Version
2.1.15.0
Windows Version
10.0.19044
Relevant Assets/Logs
Is this still an issue?
Has there been an update to the app? I can reload and test if you whish.
I see no version info in the app or on the GitHub or Microsoft store site. Version info and release date would be good info to include.

The latest build seems to be 2.3.3, noted at 2.3 on MS app store).
This is the version I have installed.
If you have a new release I can test the issue but as it stands the issue is still present on my machine.

I have not found a compiled executable with a newer build on GitHub. But there does seem to be something called a sideload build that was created 2 months ago. But again, there is no executable. -Tim

The crash does NOT occur each time the properties dialog is closed. Seems to happen at random

Could you try recreate the issue then upload the logs files directly to github. You can get them in files settings > about > open log folder.
