i can find this same problem on the forum but i can´t get my icon to work i have a .ico file for the icon but everytime i try to save the application throws an error: "There was an error while saving the standalone application Build failed for Windows: Could not load app icon"

i've tried almost every file size but nothing works. Please help me!

Hi Dainiel,
It should be just a png file, not ico

Simon

for Windows it should

ooops.... head was stuck in mobile.

Can you post the ico file here? I will test it to see if it's the icon file itself that's the problem.

Ok Thanks! here is the file

What you have there is not an .ico file, it's just a 48 x 48 .png file with the extension changed.

I have converted it to a proper .ico file but it's very poor resolution. If you can provide a .png at 256 x 256 then I can recreate it again, but this attachment will work to build your .exe file on Windows.

Men thank yo so much! if you could convert this one im sending it would be the best!
im gonna try the one you already sent

Thanks!

Yep, use this one:

now it worked , thanks men!
