[TUT] How To Change The Icon Of A File [TUT] - Jake Ekaj - Apr 25, 2012
1. Download and extract Resource Hacker. You can find Resource Hacker at their official site here - http://www.angusj.com/resourcehacker/
2. Open Resource Hacker (ResHacker.exe)
It should look like this:

4. Browse and find the file that you want the icon changed on. Click on it, then select Open. For my tutorial, I will be using server.exe

7. Browse for the Icon File or Exe File that you would like to set the new Icon as. Select the file and then click Open. For my tutorial, I will be using the Pandora Radio Icon.

You have now successfully changed the icon of the file you wanted!

Nice tutorial dude. The only thing I can suggest is, putting the pictures in spoilers.
Good shit, bro.

Nice tutorial, but I have a question. - Can't you just right click the file and change icon? What are the differences?

This is just too damn basic and there are thousands of ResHacker tutorials out there, better link them to ResHacker Faqs than trying to make your own.

There is a lot of ways to do it :)
