How do I change the icon for a running program(The icon at the top of the page before the title)?

Use resourcehacker to change it manually

I believe if you use reshack to change your icon, then that icon will also be displayed in the corner of the window.

Pongo. It doesn't change it.

Resource Hacker: File / Open - open exe. Open the icon tree until you see the prog's icon in the main window. Action / Replace Icon Click 'Open file with new icon'. Click exe, dll, ico; click replace. File / Save. Exit It sometimes takes a few minutes for Explorer to realise what you've done - the icon image it displays may be the old one, until you reopen Explorer.

What I'd rather want to do is to take off that little black window thingy that always opens up when you start a Blitz program, no matter if it's fullscreen or not. Rather, once you open the program up, it goes fullscreen or windowed at once. I believe someone did this sometime by hacking the compiling DLL or something like that.

Oops, I guess it doesn't change that. I see it's not the blitz rocket icon, but just a blank application icon. Sorry, I can't help with that. It's never bothered me that much personally, but I know it's been requested before.

John Blackledge Not that icon. The one at the top of the program berfore the title when it is running.
