Weird Safari icon after update

Hi everyone,

I tried to install recent security update for Catalina on my MacBook Air along with new Safari 14. Mac froze during installation and had to restart it. However, it managed to install new Safari, but there is a problem with the icon. It has changed to this blank paper with tools. The icon was normal before starting Safari, changed when I clicked on it. I tried to restart the system, but it didn't work.

Do you know any solution to this?

Hi! Do that command on terminal: xattr -d -r com.apple.FinderInfo /Applications/Safari.app/

If you have a messages: permission denied (..) add sudo before command > sudo xattr -d -r com.apple.FinderInfo /Applications/Safari.app/
