Add Remove program Icon

Question

I have a WIX Installer project, which installs my product. The code was not written by me. It shows an Icon in the Add/Remove programs. I want to know where is in the source code is it specified. That icon is of the main executable of my product. I tried searching the code but could not find any ARPPRODUCTICON word in the whole code. From where is the icon getting displayed in Add/Remove Programs?

Answer 1

The icon is set automatically by Windows Installer. If you want to use a custom one, you can set ARPPRODUCTICON property: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa367593(VS.85).aspx
