I'm trying to change the icon of a .exe file, normally a simple task but this .exe file is a installer and for some reason when after I change the icon, the exe shrinks in size from 300 mb to 12 kb and crashes when it runs.

I've tried using resource hacker to either replace the icon or remove it but when I try to save it, the result ends up as a tiny file which crashes when it runs. I also tried using IconChanger 3.8 and the same thing happened.

Is there some kind of protection against changing icons that I don't know about? What can I do in this situation?

LMAO You've been here for a year and you only haver nine posts. I find that funny.
OT: Run IconChanger in Administrator mode maybe. I've seen that work.

I was running as admin,
No dice, unfortunately...

Send me the exe file. I might be able to do this.

My guess is the file is way too big for the icon changer to handle.
