Re: [Py2exe-users] Embedding icon in .exe with py2exe, visible in Windows 7?

[masterLoki <mas...@gm...>]

Hi there,

I had the same problem while trying to embed my icon. In the end I could 
not archive it with py2exe (followed the same track as you). In the end 
I used resurce hacker (http://www.angusj.com/resourcehacker/) to change 
the icon.

As a related note, you may see your icon embedded on the exe while 
editing, but Windows won't display it for some reason.
