Icons not showing up next to games in library.
I recently formated my HD and when I reinstalled Steam everything was fine except for the fact that there are no icons next to the games on the "Details" view. I know they are not that important but they add a bit of color to an otherwise wall of text.

Answer: "Look for a small + icon next to the game name display it has the option to display the icons." - Thanks to Enrro!

The only thing I know off is that it takes a long time to load stuff. I had this problem too. If I select a game from my library, a lot of stuff is missing like icons and achievements are loading. But give it a min per game and it should stay like that permanently.

It has been like this for over a month -__-

steam stores all the icons and informations about the games you've installed in the appcache folder.

if you have issues to start a game you have to delete this folder. i've done this many times. i own over 290 games - normaly (not at peak time) it takes seconds to fill up the icons again.

Look for a small + icon next to the game name display it has the option to display the icons.
