I chose an icon but it doesn't show in windows' explorer

Hello folks!

I've added an icon to my application but the problem is that the icon is only showed in the upper left of the application and on the task bar. The application's icon itself is MS VS' default one (when viewing the application icon from windows' file explorer).

How can I make my application show the right icon when listing a folder's content


Thank you!

    Thank you!

    I couldn't find "Image... Current icon image types" but I did find the Proprieties menu in Project -> XXXXX Proprieties.

    Sounds like you only changed the 16x16 version of the icon, and not the 32x32 version.  In VS.NET, go to Image...Current Icon Image Types... and select 32x32 to see the larger icon.
