I recently changed my icon in visual studio 2005. The icon appears to have been changed successfully after building the solution. Until i move the .exe to my desktop, then it changes to the old icon, the only way to fix this is by renaming the program by right clicking it.

I am using windows vista

Any idea why it is doing this?

It looks like problem with icon cache on the desktop. Maybe this could help: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/117229-icon-cache-rebuild.html

Um.. Is your icon an embedded resource? Otherwise it will need to be in the folder of your executable, by default.
