    The ICON for the shortcut comes from the .EXE - nothing to do with the install.

    Pick an ICON (any .ICO file you want to use, or create one yourself). Go into the main form of your project and put that ICON into the ICON property for that form.

    Then go into PROJECT>PROPERTIES menu - under the MAKE tab - and associate the APPLICATION ICON with that FORM.

    Note that two icons exist - 16 x 16 and 32 x 32. The small one appears in the title bar of the program and the task bar when minimized. The large one is for the SHORTCUT ICON.
