Whenver I have windows explorer or basically any dialog in list or detail view, it uses a default icon for jpg and png images, as you can see:

I've rebuilt the icon cache, but it doesn't do anything. How can I get these little icons back ?

Can we have this in flow chart form so we can more easily diagnose your problems??
 
Welcome to Windows 7. This OS suffers from disappearing icons as well as slowly drawing icons, especially in places like Add/Remove Programs. I've tried several things to fix it and nothing works.
 
What's (Default)'s value for HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.jpg?

What's (Default)'s value for HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\<that value>\DefaultIcon?
 
for .jpg:

(Default) REG_SZ exifinfofarm
then under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exifinfofarm, I have:
(Default) REG_SZ (blank)
and there are subfolders shellex (Default, REG_SZ, value not set)
and a sub folder of that is PropertySheetHandlers (same, Default / REG_SZ / value not set)
and the subfolder of that is {99BCFECE-CB38-4983-BFCA-0390EDE66384}, and once again, (Default / REG_SZ / blank)
 
Sounds like some app changed the handler for your jpg's.

Try setting (Default) for .jpg to jpegfile

kinda lost interest in making this chart, but for good reason: prepare for an amazing chart in genmay in the next few days. I guarantee you that you will forget all about the shittyness of this one once you see it.
