    Hi,

    How does one go about setting the application icon that is displayed in windows explorer or a desktop, I have set the icon and it displays on the program just fine, however when you browse the folder it shows a generic icon for the executable.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks

          I don't think you need to download it
