How to replace the Opera taskbar icon?

[jimro]

This icon shown in the image. How do I change it?

Because the opera.exe file is compressed you can't open it with reshacker so you can try this.

You'll need to open Opera6.ini in the profile folder in notepad and add a line below [user Prefs]. It should read "Application Icon=path_to_icon.ico" (no quotes).

That "should" change that icon.

had a look at http://www.opera.com/support/usingopera/operaini/ and found out that the option to set application icon is a windows only feature. too bad. I tried it and it didnt work (im on a linuxbox)

thanx for the help anyway.

The OP's running a Linux distro, not Windows.
