C# change exe icon?

Question

.NET

Is it possible to change the icon of an existing exe file using c#? I saw programs for this on the Internet, but I would like to try to do this myself.
For example, I have a test.exe file and I want to change its icon using a third-party program.

Answer 1

Try www.bome.com/products/restorator or ResHacker, as far as I know, .net assemblies have resources in the same way as in native files, i.e. the explorer looks for them by the same identifiers. Open the file - replace the icon, save, see the result. Just in case, make sure that the sizes of the new and old icons match.

Answer 2

It is possible that I’m not sure how any exe will fit, google for “replacement of C# exe resources”, for example, there is a bitmap replacement, but there is no fundamental difference, there is an icon lying around somewhere.
