Finder sidebar icons gone

After a reboot caused by an empty battery, my Finder’s sidebar icons are just gone. I tried a few reboots, re-launching Finder, but I can’t fix it.

Finder Sidebar


Solution 1:

Try resetting Finder by running the following Terminal command:

rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist && killall Finder

This will reset all Finder preferences back to default.
