Hi all,
While trying the below thing i got an error
If you wanna change the icon of your Setup.exe, just open Setup.exe as an
Resource in VC++, the icon you include there will also be used in the
"Initializing" dialog at the very beginning of the installation. Remember to
include icons for all resolutions! - You can check this by using Windows
Explorer, go to path where Setup.exe is, and change View to detailed, large
icons, etc.
PacakgeForTheWebError:
This program is used internally by PackageFromTheWeb. It should not be executed directly.
I got the above steps from a forum.
Have anyone tried this.

If I recall correctly PFTW creates a check sum of the self extracting exe to detect if it has been modified (by a virus) or has become corrupt (during download). Maybe this is causing your problem. I think you need to modify the template stub.exe before packaging.

Dear Taco,
Thanks for your kind reply.
I am using ISPRO 6.22
I created an exe using normal single disk image method.
After creating it, i opened the exe in VisualC++ using binary mode and changed the icon of the exe.
And the icon gets changed but the exe is not working, instead the error points to Package for the web.
I had not used package for web method to create the exe in media wizard.
Thanks,

I think this option internally uses PackageForTheWeb (PFTW).

Dear Stefan,
I too think so,
Moreover there was no procedural steps to overwrite the exe icon.
So its better to withdraw it,
We can try the same on higher versions.
