(Win 7? I'm at the WindoX club. Can't help you reliably here.)
Basically it should help if the ico filetype is reset to being unassociated.
[Since I'm going by Windows 10 terms, the wording of the options below may be different in your system.]

Go to Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Default Programs\Set Default Programs
Select Windows Photo Viewer from the programs list at left. then click "Choose defaults for this program"
You should land on a page of extension associated to photo viewer, find ico here and untick it.

Go back to Default Programs and click on "Associate a filetype or protocol with a specific program".
Find .ico here. If it's still associated to some other application, then find that app in "Default Programs" and untick ico from it's association list.

edit: you may also apply this ico default as a reg file

I'm on windows 10 and reg file fixed the problem,thanks.

huh, photo viewer in Win10 is by default pretty powerless, you jumped thru some hoops to end up with this problem!

yes that's true i used a tweak to get old viewer back
