Absolutely, I quite agree, but I'm far from the greatest user of Google and found loads of references to the issue straight away
I just used the terms:
excel unknown icon
Finding specific useful results took a bit more hunting.

well - all the above may be irrelevant know.
When I installed Audacity 2.1.0 on my friends laptop running Win7 and Office 2010, there were NO observable issues with icon appearance or anything else.
I therefore tried to install v 2.1.0 again on my desktop and on this occasion everything went to plan and the Excel icon remained stable.
Looks like the issue resolved itself - somehow.
