"You need to rebuild the icon cache. To do so, open task manager, terminate the explorer.exe process, run cmd.exe and type:

cd /d %userprofile%\AppData\Local
del IconCache.db /a
exit

Finally, run explorer.exe"

There is an easy way: Right click in the taskbar shortcut you want to change, right click on it's name (E. Windows Explorer), properties, change icon
