Hi,

New to XP so still learning. I can see how to change a shortcut's icon (through properties). Is there a way to associate an icon with the application .exe itself?

I'm mostly interested in having the icon of my choice show on the taskbar and in the window corner, but also everywhere else really.

Thanks

No you can't change Application Icons. Reason is the Application Icons are Inbuilt in .exe when its written so its unable to change .exe icons.

some times you can change an exe icon . it's not immpossible .

some programs can do it for you . for example " Resource Hacker " or " PE Explorer " is the name of witch program that can edit .exe , .dll & ...

or some programs call "EXE Icon Changer"
