I know, how I can change the default icon of an application in the designer.
But I want to know, if there is any way to change the default app icon with code.
I already change the Me.Icon, but this has only effect on the main form and not on the exe.
Why is it that the icon of my form appears only when I am running it in my IDE. When I publish my program and running it in Windows, the icon does not appear at the taskbar, what appears is a default icon instead.
View 2 RepliesI have an issue with the icon displayed on the desktop. I have used the project's properties, application form and used the dropdown menu under icon to associate an Icon to the application. I have done this loads of times before and it has always worked.
View 6 RepliesI am using a WPF JumpTask object, and I would like my Windows 7 jumplist icon to be an icon from my own application - but not the default one. A different one. So how do I do this? I guess I specify a different icon resource index. But how do I even store my icons as resources, and how do I know which icon is which index?
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to change the default icon of my program to something else. Specifcally, the one that is associated with the executable file.I was under the impression that if you set the icon property on the main form, that it will carry over to everything else. when I try to set the icon, I get an error message stating that "The arugment 'picture' must be a picture that can be used as an icon. I have a 32x32 icon that is saves as .ico but it doesn't work.

View 2 RepliesI like the default icon the program uses on the form title bar. The icon with the little red yellow and blue colored squares. I would also like to use it as the application build icon so it use it as the icon for the .exe file and shortcuts to the .exe file.I searched a long time and couldn't find the answer. Some said to take a screen-shot of the icon displayed on the screen and crop the image and make an icon that way, but when I tried to use alt-tab with the program running, and press print-screen, the alt button made it take a screen-shot of the currently selected window and not the entire screen, so I couldn't figure out how to get a screen-shot of it at it's full size.

I have a vb.net 2008 application which has its corresponding icon.
The icon shows correctly except in the taskbar when the "small icon" setting is on.
My vb.net project includes a .ico file which when I see in the IDE includes 16x16, 32x32, 48x48, 64x64 and 256x256 bitmaps, in 4, 24 and 32 bits, also 3 .png images in 256x256 32 bits each.
I made the icon myself simply using a 64x64 bitmap and then converting it to .ico, and assigning it to the application in the project properties. I thought windows would use and escalate the corresponding image, it shows even in the file explorer properly in the small icon form, but not in the taskbar.
