If this is a system that previously had a Firefox with the old icon, it may be cached somewhere deep in the registry out of our control. Are you able to reproduce this in a clean environment?

I will try to repro as well.

Could not reproduce it on a different Win10x64 machine, only on my local machine.

Can you use use "Open File Location" on the start menu item with the old icon, and send a screenshot of the folder it opens? I have a feeling you simply have an old shortcut somewhere...

I am not able to reproduce it anymore on Win10x64, probably folder got somehow deleted.

I'm going to chalk this up to old shortcuts or Windows cache. Please do re-open if it can be reproduced reliably though.
