Some questions about WindowsIconUpdater in the NW.js export

Hello! Is there a way to avoid the player from having to run WindowsIconUpdater when they download the game? Or do it for them when the game is downloaded? It looks tacky on my download instructions to say: "Extract zip and run WindowsIconUpdater. When finished run Game.exe.". Will running It in the extracted game then re-zipping it prevent the player from having to run it themselves? There is very little info on this.

I've never seen a game make the player run WindowsIconUpdater when they want the game's icon to show up.

Thanks for any help or clarification!

Why don't you change the icons and then distribute the game without windows icon updater?

In the projects there is the icons folder on the right, you can replace all the icons from there, overwriting the image with the image you want, being careful to maintain the right dimensions.

you unpack, run the updater, remove it, zip it again and then distribute

Thank you fedca! :D

I did what Ashley said and it works. Thanks for the link!

I didn't understand exactly the problem, I always run WindowsIconUpdater and then compress the game again and send it, is that not possible?
