VS 2008 SP1.

I have created a setup project for our client. The icons for the setup.exe and setup.msi are the standard icons.

Our client doesn’t want this these icons. They want to have icons that look like they logo.

Is it possible to change the *.exe and *.msi icons to something different?

    You can change the setup.exe icon, but I’m not sure about the *.msi. I haven’t tested this with it.

    1. Build the setup project in Visual Studio
    2. Open the setup.exe file you just built, File -> Open -> File
    3. Right click the Icon node in the file explorer window and you can change and save.
    4. Import the icon your want in the popup dialog, and make sure the ID of the icon is the smallest one.

    A quick Google search pulled up some other approaches, so if this won’t work for your particular case, check some of these out.
