 |
|
Is there any way to change an icon of one file that I received? (This particular file has .exe extention, but I want to know about files of all possible extensions)
There is a good piece of software called "Resource Hacker". It is very useful for changing icons of files, but it only works with Microsoft files. What about other files? |

| Are you talking about changing the icons of compiled AHK scripts? If so, please see the program (Located on your computer) Convert .ahk to .exe. |

| Use Resource Hacker. You can change the icon and any other resources. |

AFAIK, Resource Hacker and XN Resource Editor are designed only for win32 PE executable format, I don't know about other formats like those on *nix platforms.
Please note that Resource Hacker or XN Resource Editor can't change resources of binary compressed with exe-compressor such as UPX
(you would need to decompress it first, but be careful-make backup as sometimes files can get corrupted) |
