I've noticed that there are two folders in C:\Program Files (x86)\:
Chocolatey GUI and ChocolateyGUI (this latest is empty)

@superbonaci can you please confirm what version of Chocolatey GUI you are using?

@gep13 ChocolateyGui.exe is version 0.16.0.0 (MD5=f5ceb8aac15566dc4e7413fbb613e83f)

Bump

@superbonaci @Kobus-Smit I have just tried to reproduce this problem with the latest pre-release version of Chocolatey GUI and I have not been able to.

Can you please verify with the latest pre-release version if the issue persists, and if it does, we can get this re-opened. Thanks

@gep13 Yes the pre-release's shortcut does have an icon but the .exe file does not:

The shortcut icon does show in the normal Windows taskbar but not on my second screen using DisplayFusion:

@Kobus-Smit thank you for the clarification.

I have just made a change which should correct this problem. It should be available in the next version of Chocolatey GUI, or in the next version of the pre-release from MyGet.

The issue is not fixed yet.

@superbonaci can you confirm what version of Chocolatey GUI you are currently using?

@superbonaci that doesn't answer my question.

@gep13 chocolatey 0.16.0

@superbonaci ok, so as mentioned here:

https://github.com/chocolatey/ChocolateyGUI/issues/589#issuecomment-485665614

This isn't fixed until the "next" release of Chocolatey GUI, which is 0.17.0. If you want to take the beta version of this for a spin you can find the installation instructions on the readme for this repository.

Ok thank you. I've merged the icon into the exe for now.


:tada: This issue has been resolved in version 0.17.0 :tada:

The release is available on:

Your GitReleaseManager bot :package::rocket:

Thank you, tested and works.

@superbonaci that is great, thank you for confirming!

After running choco upgrade all the icon is missing again. Download link:
ChocolateyGui.exe | 991 KB

MD5:
CF0ACB3B80349D6E3C6F74B2EEE2F31C .\ChocolateyGui.exe

I also ran this command:
choco install .\qbittorrent.4.2.2.nupkg

@superbonaci I am not sure how the qbittorrent command is relevant here.

@gep13 in case the install modifies something in the system.

No, this is unlikely to have caused any issues.
