When I search for sublime in the "search your computer" box, it shows the icon like this:

New Icon

Now when I open the application, the previous sublime text icon is shown as in image here:

Old icon

How do I replace the old icon with the new one?

  • Look in ~/.local/share/applications for duplicate .desktop files. If you installed it globally, you don't need any in ~/.local/share/applications, unless you deliberately made modifications. Local .dektop files overrule global ones, they will not update if you update the application, hence the obsolete icon. Oct 30, 2017 at 14:38
  • Just curious, but did you even look? ^ Oct 31, 2017 at 12:28
  • @JacobVlijm yes i went in .desktop file and just changed the path where the new logo is present

  • If that changes it, that means that the .desktop file you edited the icon path of can actually be deleted. That's the outdated one. Nov 1, 2017 at 12:02

UnInstall it

sudo apt-get remove sublime-text && sudo apt-get autoremove

And install it back

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/sublime-text-3
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sublime-text-installer

will fix this.
