How to change the icon of Irfanview in the taskbar when it's running
How does one change the icon for Irfanview?
How does one change the icon that shows up for something like Irfanview when you have it in snapshot mode? When I take snapshots of the screen in Irfanview, Irfanview must be running but it has the tell-tale red sunbirst icon in the task bar. I'd like to change that icon to something like the firefox or outlook or Internet Explorer icon so others can't tell I'm taking snapshots of the screen. How would one CHANGE the ICON for Irfanview? I tried right-clicking on the shortcut and on the executable but that didn't change the icon. What's the trick to change the icon of a running program in the task bar?

Why don't you just use PrintScreen to do your screen capture, THEN start IrfanView and paste the snapshot into it?

A resource editor can change taskbar icons in an executable. However Irfanview is compressed so the freeware editors I checked (Resource hacker and Exescope) couldn't access its icons.

The OP appears to want to take pictures of someone else's screen without being detected...as in spyware. -- Return address is VALID!

The simple way is the standard Windows way which gives you a selection of 11 icons(in the case of Irfanview). Right click on the icon, press Properties, press CHANGE ICON, select from 11 choices, OK. -- John G. -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com

( You know, a Kitty). Look he http://irfanview-online.com/vb/ It's a cat run over by a car. Some might find that unpleasant. If it were easy to change, I would, but I'm not going to obsess over it.
