Q: My Finder Icon in desktop invincible

My Finder Icon in my Desktop won't show up, but i can use it and the dot under it glows.

I've Tried re-booting, Safe boot aswell But it won't work. I messed up trying to change the icon picture with the iOS 7 Finder Picture, ended up that the icon not showing even in dock. It will show my Finder icon in files and it showes the new Icon that i set for the Finder icon (iOS 7)

Please Help me getting back the icon!

    Hi,

     

    If you Navigate to Hard Drive (name)/System/Library/Core services does the Finder app have an icon here ?

    Hi,

     

    If you click and hold the Dock version does it list  Show In Finder  as an option ?  (It does not normally)

    What happens if you Click and Drag the DOCK version off the Dock and Let go and then drag the App in Core Services back to the Dock ?

     

    Does this recreate the link with the icon ?
