nite_monkey:
I'm new to programming, and i was wanting to make my compiled autohotkey scripts look more professional, but I don't know how to change the icon for it. I want to be able to change the tray icon, and also change the program's icon (the icon that shows up on the desktop and in folders right above the name of the program). How do I do that? Is there a program that I can use to do that, or can I do that with a code that I add to the script? I was looking at the documentation on the AHK site, I did see something about adding a tray icon, but I don't think that would change the program's physical icon (the green H when you compile it).

kimmchii:
right click on the file>properties>change icon

nite_monkey:
there isn't a change icon under properties. that is only for shortcuts, I want the original program's icon changed.

kimmchii:
then you need to use Resource Hacker.

Use the compiler (convert.ahk to .exe) to browse to your preferred icon
