How to change the icon in the title bar in R?

Question

I just installed R 2.11.0-x64 onto my Windows 7 Professional machine.

With my previous installations of R (2.10.1 32 bit was the most recent) the little icon that appeared in the title bar and in the taskbar at the bottom of windows was the R "R." Now however, the icon almost looks like a small windows Task Manager.

I know this isn't a code issue, but it affects me as I flip between windows.

Is there a way to put the "R" icon back in there? Would it be an R setting or a Windows setting?

Answer 1

It is a bug that was fixed yesterday. As per this Daily R Devel News entry post:

2.11.0 patched NEW FEATURES (Windows)

* The Rgui console, pagers and editor on the 64-bit build now have a 
  title bar icon.

So upgrading to the '2.11.0 patched' build may help.
