1I'm not sure if it matters, but what language is this project in? I believe you need to add the icon to the `resource` file of the project. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16026262/how-can-i-change-the-default-exe-icon-in-visual-studio-2012-c – zero298 Dec 27 '13 at 16:59

What kind of application is this? Windows Store? – John Saunders Dec 27 '13 at 17:03

A Store app has *tiles*, not icons. Project + Store + Edit App Manifest, change the Logo tiles. – Hans Passant Dec 27 '13 at 17:13

To change the default icon, first find or make an icon file. Then do this:
- Go to the project properties. (Project menu.)
- Select the Application pane. (Probably the first one.)
- Go to the section Resources.
- Check the option (radio) button Icon and manifest.
- For the Icon field, use the browse button to select your icon file.
- Save it, build it, try the certification test again.
