How to change FC icon also on Taskbar?

#1 Post by Forez » 16.12.2022, 22:55

In the file with settings available at

C:\Users\YOUR-USER-NAME\AppData\Local\FreeCommanderXE\Settings\FreeCommander.ini

users can change the icon of FreeCommander by using

FcIconNr=2

line. But the change of the icon is not implemented on the Taskbar of Windows - is that correct behavior? And if yes then could this be changed to include also the Taskbar?



I am using FreeCommander version 861 32-bit public on Windows 10 Enterprise 20H2 19042.746 x64

It works for the LNK file:
- open properties of the lnk
- click "Other symbol"
- select the new symbol
- close all
