Missing icons in Windows Horizon Client

I tried to update the Horizon Client 8.1.0 (17349995) to 8.2.0 (17759012) which failed. After that I could not uninstall and could not install. I had to restore to the last Windows 10 restore point.

Since then the Horizon Client 8.1 only shows empty icons. They work - but it doesn't look pretty.

Also, we have the same error on another Windows 10 device, after successful upgrade from Horizon Client 5.4.3 to 8.1.

Does anyone have a solution for this? The error is apparently on and off in different Horizon Client versions.
Here, for example, there is already an older article about it:

Hi,

I had the same issue. It’s because the machine wasn’t reboot after updating the Horizon Client.

You can fix this, by replacing the (missing) icons. See https://communities.vmware.com/t5/Horizon-Desktops-and-Apps/VDI-Icons-missing-from-VMware-Horizon-cl...

This works for me!
