Random Finder Folders Display Incorrect Icons

I recently discovered that a few random folders on my NAS are displaying QuickTime MP4 icons instead of the usual folder icons. This has piqued my curiosity, and I’m trying to understand what may be causing this peculiarity. After examining these folders closely, I found nothing particularly distinguishing them from the other folders on the NAS. They appear to be structurally and functionally similar to the rest.

When I checked the “More Info” section through the Inspector window, it indicated a standard file icon in the “Preview” area, which only deepened my confusion about the icon display. Given that there are no apparent differences between these folders and the others, I am left wondering if there is an underlying issue or a specific setting that could explain this icon anomaly. It’s also worth considering whether it could be a quirk related to the NAS system itself. If anyone has experienced something similar or has insights into why certain folders might show incorrect icons, I would greatly appreciate your thoughts.

Understanding the functionality behind this might help in diagnosing if there’s a deeper problem at play or if it’s merely a superficial glitch that can be easily resolved.
