QIcon Changer is an extremely easy to use tiny tool used to quickly and effectively modify the icon of EXE executable file. Among numerous similar software, it seems that there isn’t a better one that is more convenient and handy than QIcon Changer.

The use of QIcon Changer is so easy that you just need to direct drag an EXE file and your favorite icon onto the software interface to replace the program’s original icon. In particular, when you create a shortcut to the EXE file with changed icon, the icon of this shortcut will be the same new one.

For common computer users, QIcon Changer is generally used to change the software icon in order to realize personalization; And more, I think it is likely to be maliciously used to add icons to viruses, Trojan files to disguise them as commonly used software, so as to lure users to run it. Undoubtedly, AppNee absolute does not suggest you to utilize it like this, unless a prank.

// Prompts //

  • Your icon file should be large enough, like 48 x 48. This way, when it displays in the large icon view, the icon won’t go back to its default one
  • Some few EXE files’ icon maybe can not be modified
  • After applying a new icon, remember to move the EXE file to another folder. Otherwise, the thumbnail cache won’t be updated
