The first icon is the FontCreator font editor icon. It shows when FontCreator is assigned to be the default software used when you open the file.

When Windows Font Viewer is the default software, a font preview is shown as icon in Windows explorer. What characters are used within that preview depends on the Unicode Character Range settings. You can change these settings in FontCreator on the Ranges tab, but be aware some applications might rely on them. For example, if you disable a specific range, Word might use a fallback font when you type characters from such range.
