I wanted to change the icon showing for a shortcut on the desktop, which points to a .Net utility I created for myself. I rebuilt the exe after changing the icon used within the project.
In Windows Explorer the new icon shows in all size variations for the exe. In the 'Change Icon' dialog from the Properties option, the correct icon is showing as present, yet when I Apply it remains with the old icon?
Even when I delete the shortcut and create a new one pointing to the newly built exe the old icon somehow is assigned?
Keep in mind, that is not the windows 7 path..... that's an XP path. – Brett – 2010-02-11T21:52:51.387
I can't find an equivalent folder in Windows7, and restarting the machine didn't solve it. – Bill – 2010-02-11T22:05:36.083
Edited to add Win7 path. If the restart didn't help, probably not a caching issue then. – heavyd – 2010-02-11T22:15:37.167
Probably not a caching issue either because there is no IconCache folder in my AppData\Local folder. The problem is also not Win7-64 related because I get exactly the same behaviour on a Win7-32 laptop as well. – Bill – 2010-02-12T05:50:16.587
