if you ever decide to change an Icon manually in windows, and you pick explorer.exe as the thing, is comes up with like 20 icons that you can choose from, and when I picked my exe, there was only one, how do I get more then one
I dont think that, that was very clear, so if you dont understand it, please tell me, and I will try explaining it in a diffrent way
-
Are you talking about when you select an icon for a shortcut?
There's a file located in the C:\Windows\System folder called Shell32.dll which contains a bunch of icons to choose from.
-
but how do I get my program to have more then 1?

Take a look at this thread.

I'm not asking how to change it, I'm asking how to get my program to have more the 1 icon
-
Me.Icon = "....\icon.ico"
And just change it to get a new icon.
That what you want?
-
no if you right click anything on your desktop, then click on "Change Icon" it will bring up a window with a exe name in the top bar, and all the icons that are in it, in the window below it, so when you type c:\windows\explorer.exe into the top bar, it shows lots of icons in the under under it, so how do I get my program to have lots of icons under it? (I understand that I have to embed them somehow, but how?)

Take a look at this thread.
And also this thread.

Try this: create a resource file and add all the icons you want to that resource file. Then add the file to your project and compile.
Voila!
