All of my icons have disappeared after an update; I tried selecting different icon themes but still no icons are showing up when I log in.

This is a mime cache issue resolved using
sudo update-mime-database /usr/share/mime
and performed logout and then login, now all icons are back

on my Lubuntu 18.04 missing icons on launch bar which I have after reboot during apt update were fixed after second reboot Dec 15, 2020 at 4:57
I add the same ! I was caused by a fail update of linux kernel. My /boot folder was full.
To check that : In a terminal, type
df /boot
if it is full (100%), you can clean it using this tutorial : http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2016/05/remove-old-kernels-ubuntu-16-04/ Look at "Remove Old Kernels via DPKG".

sudo dpkg --configure -a
in a terminal. It worked for me.
