Create icon

[Scott]

Could someone remind me how to use a jpg file as a shortcut icon? I have done it before but I cannot for the life of me remember how. Thanks

IIRC use a photo editing program to reduce the size to 30 x 30 pixels and save it as <name>.ico If I'm wrong someone else will be along in a moment to correct me :)

Irfan View - or a more specialised proggy.

Thanks folks. I found a suitable program later. Initially I was wondering if it could be done within Windows 10 but this program was fine.
