I'm having trouble with CCleaner after using its Duplicate Finder feature. I decided to clean up my files since it's been a while, and after running the basic version, I noticed this new function. Unfortunately, it severely impacted the appearance of quite a few apps. The most noticeable change was my recycle bin; instead of the usual white, it turned black, which was really confusing. Also, all my app icons, except Google Chrome, became chunky rather than smooth. I'm running Windows 11 on a Surface Pro 6, and I'm curious if there's any software or solution to fix this issue.

I had a similar issue, and I found this program called DupeSweep on the Microsoft Store. It's free and gives you full control over duplicate file sorting. I even got a discount code for the premium features, making it only $12. You might want to give it a shot!
Be careful! If Duplicate Finder removed files from your entire system, they should've ended up in the recycle bin. Go check there and see if you can restore them. If they're not present, your options might include using a backup or possibly doing a system restore. Just be cautious when deleting files—some duplicates are actually necessary for your system.
I understand your frustration—it's odd when software changes your visual settings like that. Here’s a screenshot showing what I mean, in case it helps illustrate the problem. Let me know if you find a fix!
It’s strange that using Duplicate Finder would change your icons. Are you sure you just ran that function? Have you tried restarting your computer? Sometimes a simple reboot can resolve display issues like that.
