    Hello there, welcome to Seven Forums.

    Here are a couple of links which should help you out:

    Change shortcut icon - changing shortcut icons(the process is the same for others)
    Icofx free program for icon creation, extraction & editing
    Iconviewer - the name speaks for itself

    It's such a minor thing, don't even worry about it.
    The main thing is that the other icons have been changed.
