About this mod
Follow a few quick steps to change your SKSE64_Loader.exe Windows icon to something a bit nicer.
- Requirements

- Changelogs
- Download and install the .exe version of Resource Hacker.
- Manually download this mod and extract the .ico image file somewhere easy to find, such as your downloads folder.
- Open ResourceHacker.exe
- From the toolbar, select "File / Open" and navigate to the location of your Skyrim game folder and select "skse64_loader.exe"
- From the toolbar, select "Action / Add an Image or Other Binary Resource"
- Click "Select File" from the popup box, and navigate to this mod's .ico image file, then select "open"
- Select "Add Resource" in the popup box
- From the toolbar, select the green disk to Save the icon. (Resource Hacker will automatically create a backup called "skse64_loader_original.exe" in your Skyrim folder.)
- DONE !!!
- If you want to change the icon in the future to something else, follow the same steps as above to select "skse64_loader.exe." Then, from the toolbar select "Action / Replace Icon ..." and select the "Open file with new icon..." button. Then save the file. That's it!
NOTE:
Follow these steps to change your icons to anything else you desire. I used the online tool, ICO Convert, to create an .ico out of the .png you see in this mod. I imagine it's the same process for any other Bethesda games too. These icons should appear in MO2, as you can see in my preview images.
