Kindly let me know if you have come across and resolution.

require("winresourcer")({ operation: "Update", // one of Add, Update, Extract or Delete exeFile: "app.exe", resourceType: "Icongroup", resourceName: "IDR_MAINFRAME", lang: 1033, // Required, except when updating or deleting resourceFile: "blue.ico" // Required, except when deleting }, function(error) { console.log(error); // callback });

Did packaging using pkg and want to change icon for app.exe. Also have tried absolute path and result is same.

The path of the icon resource (i.e. resourceName and lang parameters) may differ depending on exe packager. You can use a gui resource editor like Resource Hacker to check the path of the icon to change in your exe file and set parameters accordingly.
