Edge Icon Color
Hi I recently switched from Chrome to Edge. I liked Chromes colorful icon because it stands out from mostly bluish icons pinned to taskbar. Now I have hard time to find Edge amongst a lot of small b...
Hi,
you always have had this ability in Windows.
right-click on Edge's icon on desktop, go to properties, shortcut tab, select change icon.
there will be some icons there but the best thing is there is a browser button which lets you browser for any icon that you want. just make sure the picture or icon file you want to choose is in .ico format.

HotCakeXThis only works if you are changing the desktop icon, but the taskbar icon once edge is loaded continues to be the same blue color, how do we change that one?

Tak Edge umożliwia zmianę ikony - dodam zrzut ekranu ekranu.
Ale ja uważam że to jest tak jak znak towarowy i nie powinien być zmieniany !
dziękuję- Thanks for you answer.
I know you can change icon that way, but that works only for desktop icon. When you open Edge, there is same old blue icon appears on taskbar.Sorry i forgot the last part 🙂
after you do that, unpin the old icon from taskbar and drag the new one over the taskbar to pin it.
you can do the same to Start menu shortcuts:
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programsbtw, can you please attach a screenshot of your taskbar? I want to see the old icons you're referring to.
- I tried that and I had a nice orange Photoshop colored Edge icon on taskbar. 🙂 Very visible amongst other Word, Outlook, My Computer, Control Panel, etc, etc blue icons.
When the Edge is not running!
When I start Edge, there is same old blue boring icon.
