With yesterday's release of Windows 10 build 21390, Microsoft introduced a couple of new Fluent icons in the OS. The Task Manager app, and MSI files have got modern icons. Interested users can download them now to apply to the existing (non-Insider) installations.
Earlier in build 21343, the company has added many fresh icons to File Explorer. Now, instead of simple yellow folders, we have plenty of rich, colorful variants, a brand-new Recycle Bin icon, and many more. Now Task Manager joins this party.
If you want to get your hands on the newest Task Manager and MSI icons for File Explorer, there is no need to download Windows 10 preview builds. Enthusiasts have already extracted them, and you can download them to your device.

- Right-click the Task Manager shortcut and click on the Change icon button in its properties dialog.
