An Icon issue

I have a desktop and a laptop, both running Linux Mint 20.3. As far as I can see, they are set up the same way. I have checked OS Themes and gambas settings, but there is nothing that stands out as being different.
But there is a difference, does anybody know where I might find a way to correct this?

do they both have the same icon themes installed?
gnome-icon-theme etc
dpkg-query --list *-icon-theme

Some time ago I found it can make a difference using the tiny/small/medium/etc names as opposed to the size value.
explicit size value like Icon://16/save gives the colour icon and icon://small/save gives the rubbish one.
I reported it as a bug but i'm not sure it was fixed.

well there's 3 places.
gambas settings.
Menu System/Look and feel/Appearance , Theme/Customise/Icons (gtk settings)
Menu System/Look and feel/Qt5 settings (install qt5ct if it's not there) then go to icon theme

i'm not too sure about GTK icon settings as you haven't said what desktop you are using yet

That is what I thought, but there is no visible way to change it.
