Create your own icon in the color you want and tell outlook to use that as its icon.

Hello
I use "Icon Processor" to change the icons .. this is no problem
Already changed many icons ...... But
The only icon that I can not change is Microsoft Office 2010
More specifically the icon "Microsoft Outlook 2010 (Beta)"

Thanks

Ahh what I'm suspecting is happening is when you right click -> properties there is not an option to customize the icon. Well this might help is remove the desktop shortcut your using and goto the installation directory, from there right click the exe and paste shortcut onto your desktop. from that shortcut you should be able to change the icon!

Please let me know if that works!
Thanks

Look inside there for the Micrsoft Word.exe or whatever it may be called, then create a shortcut for it onto your desktop, if that doesnt work post back I'll help you figure this out,

Thanks
