Application icon changer - Adderall - Apr 1, 2015

Does anyone know how to change the icon of other applications by using vb.net?
I searched google and couldn't find anything the only thing I could find was how to change the icon from the application you're using which is almost the first thing you learn with vb.net coding.
I coded an application that will create a .exe file but I wan't to change the icon of the .exe file and I also want to change the ©copyritghy , discription, company, product and version. (assembly information things)

Could somone help me out.
Thanks if you could help me! 🤝

Yeah I saw that thread but does that work in .Net 2.0 because I tried it and it did nothing the file icon wasn't changed.

Restart explorer.exe after changing the icon, I had similar issues.

Do you know code to change the assembly settings of the file like file version and description?
