Did you actually see this?  Does the file really exists?

IT is an exact science.. ;)

There are rules for a proper ICO file and it will fail when it isn't correct! Look at the examples available and ensure you follow that format.

Finally, I've managed to using my icon, thanks to this free online tool: http://www.xiconeditor.com/ .
Hope I'm not going versus forum rules, and I hope I'm helping someone with this tool... 
Thanks everyone for the help :)

PS: and this is my 100th post! :D

Old thread, I know, but I had the same problem just now.  Supposedly you can make an .ico file by saving a 256 color 32x32 .bmp out of MS Paint and naming it with the .ico extension, but I got the same compile error.  Used the above website to convert it and it compiled with no trouble.  Thanks, Francesco!

I'm now having the same apparent issue, and I'm not getting any errors during the SciTe Build. But when I use Resource Hacker to view the icon, it is correct, which means the problem is definitely not with AutoIt or SciTe for AutoIt, it must be that Windows 10 Explorer is not showing the correct icon in Details view for some reason.

I'm not asking a question. Instead, I'm pointing our that others having this problem under Windows 10 might be having this Explorer problem rather than an AutoIt problem...

Further note: I don't know how to fix this after all. Resetting the icon cache does not solve the problem when using Explorer Details view. If you switch to Thumbnail view, it shows correctly, but not in Details view. So although this isn't an AutoIt problem, it is a real problem. Anyone got any ideas?

I created the file 2 times with Paint and the size of the icon is 32 x 32 px. I save it as .ico ( Icon ) and nothing else.

What do you mean? do you mean you created a bmp or jpg and just changed the extension to ico?

I mean, the paint I HAVE doesn't create icons.. You do know that icons can have like a dozen sizes embedded right?

Just get a real icon editor/creator, and create a propper icon.

In reply to my post above, it turns out that rebooting fixes the problem. That seems ridiculous to me! You didn't need to reboot Win 7 for Explorer to show the correct icons. That's a bug in my opinion.


Or is there an alternative fix? After all, there's obviously some specific change, such as reloading icons in Explorer, that the reboot brings about. Resetting the icon cache doesn't fix it by itself, but perhaps there's an alternative or additional action that will solve it without a reboot? Next time I'll try force-exiting all copies of Explorer...

Rebuild your icon cache

Well, as I said, resetting the icon cache (I use Winaero Tweaker 0.9 (for Windows 10) for this) does force the icon cache to rebuild, but clearly that's not enough to change the icon displayed under Windows 10 Explorer Details view; a reboot very much seems to be necessary.  Unless you know an alternative way to force Windows 10 to rebuild the icon cache?  If so, please share it with us.

save this to a batch. all you really need to do is RESTART explorer, like this. This should not be done regularly, there should rarely be a need but I have seen it in all Windows operating systems.

taskkill /f /im explorer.exe
cd /d %userprofile%\AppData\Local
del IconCache.db /a
start explorer.exe

 

I see this on VMs too when testing our product upgrades. Something happens and Windows doesn't get around to it. LOL.

Happy to have helped!
Yes, you can't just resize the image and then name it with .ico extension :)
Sorry if I'm replying just now, but I'm busy at work!

Have a good day :)

Nice workaround @Earthshine!

Hello

I know I'm late. Yet, old topics may be seen and help more people than you guys might think.

This one worked well for me : https://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/intro/compiler.htm (yes, htm). I rewrite down below what I used. Have fun using AutoIt ! <3

On windows, open a cmd, move to your AutoIt3 directory thanks to "cd" command and then run : Aut2exe.exe /in  path_to_your_au3_code\yourCode.au3 /out path_where_you_want_the_exe_to_be_saved_in\yourExeCode.exe /iconpath_to_your_icon\youIcon.ico /x64
