Hi there,

Thanks for the info, very helpful! We tried the same stuff, it works fine in the vs2008 or in the bin folder, but when we publish it as a stand alone application, it comes out with error when i minimize, when we debug, it shows the error, that it is not able to find the favicon.ico in some strange path. It means during publish, the project is not taking the icon file, is there any solution for the same!

Thanks in advance!

new Icon(global::MyApp.Properties.Resources.IconName, 16, 16)

where:

MyApp = application name
IconName = icon resource name

Thank you for this. Had to change to Embedded resource and used icofx to create a good .ico (same file with many sizes).

“Too bad this requires loading the WinForms assembly.”… T

True, but you do what you’ve got to do under time constraints. There are so many things you can do under WinForms that you can’t under Wpf without a TON of hassle that I find it hard to want to use Wpf. I’ve used it a few times, but for business apps it just doesn’t make sense for me yet.

Thanks for posting this. It helped me solve my problem. Too bad this requires loading the WinForms assembly.

Also your Icon should be added as an “Embedded Resouce” not “Resouce”. (see properties in Visual Studio)
“Resource” is for WPF and “Embedded Resouce” is for backward compatibility with winforms. Because this component was designed for winforms it expects a winforms compatible resource.

this.Hide() and this.Show() seem to be problematic with multi-monitor displays.

this.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed has worked better for me.
