The icon only appears when you choose "Build and compress Windows exe-file", did you try that?

If you have a ico-file that don't work then please attach it to this thread or PM me so I can take a look at it.

It works for me. All I did was open your project and choose build compressed.

The icon is 24-bit color but that should not be a problem. Do you use XP or Vista?

I've only tried this feature on XP so there may be a difference there. Ok, I'll look into it later and see if I can fix it.

The higher resolution 256x256 png compressed Vista icons are not supported in ZGE yet, but your icon is 16x16 uncompressed so it should work.

There is a problem with Windows caching application icons that are viewed in Explorer so you may see an old icon.

Try renaming your zgeproj-file to "Template2" or something and then generate compressed executable again, does that help?

I need to examine this a bit more. Anyone else have this problem?

Here is a article with a command line tool for replacing icons in exe-file, in the worst case I may build it into ZGE, but I hope there is a easier solution.
