Icon/Customize tab missing for .EXE
Thursday, July 29, 2010 by Koasati | Discussion: IconPackager
About 3 months ago, I was able to change icons for applications, now the tab is missing in Properties.
When I right click on .dll, .chm, .config, .txt, etc. I get "Change Icon" in the context menu, but right clicking on .exe, and there's no such entry.
Win7 Home Premium 64bit.
I've read a few posts where folks are having the same or similar problems, but have found no answers or suggestions. Anyone know what's going on, and how to fix it?
Thanks

Thanks Wizard, but I've not run into that problem, and I've changed several.... but now I don't have the option.

Koasati,
I have a different problem when adding IP to IP they some time s go in some times they don't and when they do go in it won't change all the folders to that IP it will leave some as win 7 Icons.
as for your problem I have the Icon tab under Property when right clicking on an .exe, so I would say to uninstall then reinstall it might bring it back.

Just a FYI: I've had bad experiences using IP to change .exe icons on Win7/64 bit. I change just one and some others get changed to a blank(white sheet) icon. I then have to change it back and edit the registry to restore the other ones. This has happened on several occasions. Your mileage may vary, but I don't go there any more.
