How do you fix this problem where all app icons and shortcuts are completely blank?

Windows 11

My laptop turned on in my bag and overheated which is most likely the cause for this, I'm not sure when it turned on but I only realized after I arrived at school (an hour after I left home.)

I’ve restarted my laptop, ran chkdsk, cleared icon cache, and opened command prompt so many times (sfc /scannow, DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth) already.

My OS Build is 26100.6584 and I use an Aspire A514-54G. Please help me out, thanks!
