Hi there.
So I added an icon to my C++ application on Visual Studio by adding an Icon to the Resources.
And it worked, but only for the taskbar, not on the window itself.

Not really sure why.

How are you constructing the window? The window's icon doesn't need to be the same as the application icon.

I'm actually using SDL for window construction. I just thought that by adding the icon to Visual Studio it would be set for both the taskbar and the window title
