The icon must be in Windows .ico format. You just need to place this new property under the element: /path/to/the/icon/file Please note that the icon file can contain up to three different icons that must match one of the following formats: • – 16 x 16 pixels, 256 colors (you can see it on Explorer -> View -> Either “List” or “Details”) • – 32 x 32 pixels, 256 colors (you can see it on Explorer -> View -> “Icons”) • – 48 x 48 pixels, 256 colors (you can see it on Explorer -> View -> Either “Tiles” or “Thumbnails”) Any other icon formats are not supported right now and will be ignored by the application. This feature is only supported in InstallBuilder 5.2.0 and later.
