Factorio Forums

In win 64 bit factorio.exe file contains no icon.
So if I create a link on desktop, my link has no icon (showing generic ugly windows one).

edit: found a Factorio.ico in data\core\graphics - my "complain" is that that icon should be embedded in exe, so it automatically appears when creating shortcuts

Hmm, that seems weird, im with win7 64bit, and the icon was automatically created.. hmm but wait i also checked the option to create desktop shortcut during installation.

So yeah i guess if you used the ziped version, or didnt check the option in the installer and made the shortcut manually, could be problematic.
And yeah fyi, that icon you found is the normal one, thats used with the installation method.

just to confirm that I used zip file, not the installation package.

The icon has been included in the exe file (both installer or zip package), so it is solved for 0.10.4
