I want to have my icon displayed along with my application in Add/Remove Program.

For this I have added my myicofile.ico from project Assistance->Application Information->Select Icon To display with your application in Add/Remove

However even after doing so it is not showing my icon in Add/Remove program.
It is displaying general default folder icon.

Please suggest me what to do next?

Dear Stefan,

Windows Installer 3.0 is installed from the start in my machine.
I am using Windows 2000 professional SP4.
I dont understand fully from your refered site.

I want to know as per the given options of showing icon file for the application in Add/Remove I have to provide the icon file as destination property.
Should I put the Icon file in InstallDir folder also?

Is it required to build (Compile) each individual application with setting property for the icon?
Is it required to put the icon for the form captions of the applications using webforms?

Please give some more hints.

Thanks
Sanjoy

Does your setup show the correct icon if you peform a per-machine install ("for all users") instead of a per-user install ("only for me")?
