Do you know of a way to change the icon associated with an .exe
For example the folder with the magnifying glass represents fexplore.exe
I want to change the icon to somethin less queer

If I remember correctly the icon is likely embedded within the .exe. You would need a tool to extract the .exe on your PC, make the changes then repackage back to .exe.

I had the same question but not with an exe but a Lnk(shortcut). I found some info on another forum but I can't remember where. They used a program called Rviewer to find the index of the icon in the exe or the dll file, then add that info to the shortcut. I did this because I hated all the programs that had the mortscript icon. Heres a example of what my shortcuts look like.

Original
"\Program Files\MortScript\TomTom (Landscaper).mscr"

With Correct Icon
"\Program Files\MortScript\TomTom (Landscaper).mscr"?\storage card\program files\navigator\TomTom Navigator.exe,-0

You can see the location of the file that has the icon that I want and the -0 is the index location within that file. So all you need to add is ?file location with the desired icon,-index number
Attached Files
