Changing File Icon in Windows 11

Changing File Icon in Windows 11

Hello, the newfangled Windows makes PDF and docx icons look white and blue and almost the same. Changing an icon appearance used to be a simple right click. But the customize option seems to be gone. The one solution I found was ineffectual, or I don't know how to do it. Thoughts?
