Nativefier: Build fails on Windows with rcedit error: Cannot open icon file

[robertmylne]

I keep getting this error on Windows (any ideas why?) [powershell, normal and administrator mode]:

  copying [====================                              ] 40%Packaging app for platform win32 x64 using electron v6.0.3

Hi I had some failures keeping it working with powershell - may try cmd instead?

Is the icon a real .ico (may try to convert - never had trouble with .ico converted with https://convertico.com )
Is the path correct? What command do you use?

C:\Users\myuser\Desktop>nativefier -i "cs-logo.ico" "https://mysite.com"
the cs-logo.ico is located at Desktop <- this should work.
