Windows app icon on taskbar #370

So here's a little thing that maybe I can fix myself but don't know how: in Windows 10, when I open WM3 (and it is not already pinned to the taskbar), I see the correct M icon in the taskbar. But if I pin the app to the taskbar, that icon disappears and is replaced with some sort of generic black hexagram thing, and that generic icon is what remains in the taskbar whether the app is open or closed. I would like to pin the app to the taskbar but be able to see the more attractive M icon there.

Like I said, small thing, but just thought I'd ask.

Hi, first create a windows shortcut for the wm exe file. Then change the icon for that shortcut - right click, properties, change icon, point to wm ico file. Then run wm from that shortcut and pin the app. i.
