Changing node of webkit application icon on windows from cli

Question

I'm currently trying to create a .bat script to automatically create my node -webkit application, and only the missing thing changes the generated .exe icon.

I searched for time intervals until I found some working solution.

So far I have tried:

• Resource Hacker : I managed to change the icon using the application, but could not get it to work with the script. Here is a screenshot of a resource hacker with my exe I tried the following commands:
  • ResHacker -modify App.exe, AppTest.exe, MyIcon.ico, Icon, 1
  • ResHacker -modify App.exe, AppTest.exe, MyIcon.ico, Icon, 1, 1033
  • ResHacker -addoverwrite App.exe, AppTest.exe, MyIcon.ico, "Icon Group", IDR_MAINFRAME, 1033
  • ResHacker -addoverwrite App.exe, AppTest.exe, MyIcon.ico, "Icon Group", IDR_MAINFRAME

Unfortunately, none of them created the AppTest.exe file, and they did not print or report an error.

• RCEDIT.exe , which is part of the WinRun4JS application, on their home page shows an example of using RCEDIT to change the icon: RCEDIT.exe /I [YourApp].exe [YourApp].icoit really works, but it breaks the node -webkit executable file and leaves me with the application that runs the nodejs page by default. (Recall that node -webkit exe are constructed this way

• Various other applications worked fine, but none of them offered a command line interface.

I feel like I'm very close to a solution with Resource Hacker, and maybe I missed something suspicious when I was messing with it, but right now I can’t try anything.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day!
