I've installed Smart Office and noticed that TC shows that application's icon for .DOCX/.XLSX files.
However standard file manager shows proper document icons (which look like paper sheets or albums with W or E letters, almost like on PC, perhaps taken from disabled app stubs for Word and Excel that suggest to install full apps).
Is there a way to get proper icons for documents in TC? If it does matter, I have Samsung Galaxy A320F with Android 8.

Re: Document icons in TC
TC requests the icons from Android, so it's strange that you would get different icons. The icons are set by the app.
You could define a custom association for these file types, it allows you to pick your own icons.

Re: Document icons in TC
Well, thank you for the hint, custom icon looks better, though application icon looks a bit different from file icon in other managers.
Perhaps Samsung file manager knows this format (though I doubt that it makes any presumptions), but other apps also show specific icons.
Here I made a screenshot showing how .docx and .xlsx files look in diferent apps: https://i.ibb.co/17Q72rx/Andro-Doc-Xlsx.gif
It looks like there is a set of icons for file extension somewhere, and other apps use icons from it (with different sizes).
