I ran into the same thing and was quite confused for a while. Everything posted above is true, but it still took a few more steps before I could reliably change icons and have the changes stick.

Color of text in classic start menu is randomly changing to the highlighted menu color in WB 4.6, even if the mouse is nowhere near the start menu.
