Question

I got the icons right for my application, in the Start Menu, application folders, etc., but it doesn’t come right into the Add or Remove Programs listing. What should I include for this?

Answer 1

You might not be able to do it directly through ClickOnce, as it’s not supported. Maybe you could try editing the registry a bit as shown in Missing Icon in Add/Remove Programs for ClickOnce Application:

RegistryKey myUninstallKey = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey(@"Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall");
string[] mySubKeyNames = myUninstallKey.GetSubKeyNames();

for (int i = 0; i < mySubKeyNames.Length; i++)
{
    RegistryKey myKey = myUninstallKey.OpenSubKey(mySubKeyNames , true);
    object myValue = myKey.GetValue("DisplayName");
    if (myValue != null && (string)myValue == _ApplicationName)
    {
        myKey.SetValue("DisplayIcon", _ExecutablePath + @"\App.ico");
        break;
    }
}
