Delphi7从Project中删除/恢复MAINICON

Question

In Delphi7 you can assign/load an icon to a project. After every compilation your application has the assigned icon. I would like to delete/restore the icon back to the original Delphi7 Icon. I can't find a button/option for this. I also tried deleting the .res file but no luck. Any Ideas?

Answer 1

The icon is stored in the .res file. If you delete/rename your .res file with the project open in the IDE, maybe the .res data is already loaded and then will be saved again to the new .res.

Anyway, if excluding the .res file is not solving your problem, you can open the .res file with a resource editor tool ( XN Resource Editor for example) and export/change/delete the MAINICON resource as you want.
