Q: 

Can I create a custom desktop icon for a shortcut in ClickOnce Deployment?

My application creates a shortcut on the user's desktop with a standard icon. How can I change the icon to something custom? I'm using VS2008 with .NET 3.5. Thank you.

This forum post explains the various hoops you will have to jump through to get this to work. I know one of the developers at my work had issues with getting it to work he said he'd found the msdn forum post which helped him out.

Thank you, yes! This is the answer. You must go to My Project -> Application tab -> Then you will be able to select an icon. Thanks again!
