    I'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:

  1. Go to the project properties. (Project menu.)
  2. Select the Application pane. (Probably the first one.)
  3. Go to the section Resources.
  4. Check the option (radio) button Icon and manifest.
  5. For the Icon field, use the browse button to select your icon file.
  6. Save it, build it, try the certification test again.
