Im creating a c# application using visual studio 2010 on a windows 7 machine. I added an icon image to to my form and the icon shows up fine on all windows 7 machines I run the application on. But when I try and run it on an XP machine it doesn’t allow the program to run or display the image on the desktop. Any suggestions on this?
Your icon is sized improperly for Windows XP. Windows XP can’t handle large icon format by default (48×48 is default max I think in XP). Windows Vista and 7 handle 256×256. It could also simply be malformed. Try removing the icon and verify that it corrects the problem. You may also want to try to reformat your icon file (with software like Icon Workshop).
