The bulk icon is already part of the binary bootloader (see support/loader/*.exe: they already have icons). The files you deleted would affect recompilation of the bootloader, which is usually not performed on Windows. If you specify an icon with Makespec.py, the icon should be inserted into the executable, overwriting the bulk one. I have no idea why the process fails for you. -- Giovanni Bajo :: [email protected] Develer S.r.l. :: http://www.develer.com My Blog: http://giovanni.bajo.it -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "PyInstaller" group.
