Re: Customize TC Title Bar

To tell apart two copies of the program at a glance, an ability to change the icon would be useful. This is what I do with another application. Extract the icon, drag the hue slider around to produce a new icon of a different color using zero graphics skill, insert the modified icon back into the exe. Unfortunately it doesn't work with Total Commander because it has a protection.

6. Right click on the first icon and choose "Add icon" and choose an icon to you liking.
7. Right click on the first icon and choose "Delete icon(s)".
