    how do I change google chrome icon?

    If you want to change Google Chrome icon that is shown on the Windows Taskbar once Google Chrome is started, then you should follow this link:

    Is it possible to customize taskbar icons? If so how?

    The answer is given in comments: you need to change icons that are stored in chrome.dll using Resource Tuner (use Trial version) or Resource Hacker (free).

    I've used IcoFX (Trial version) to generate various .ico icons.

    Currently I'm running 4 separate instances of Google Chrome v37.0.2062.124. One instance is installed and three other instances of Google Chrome are portable, downloaded from:

    Google Chrome Portable (web browser) | PortableApps.com

    Here's how my Windows 7 Taskbar looks like when all 4 instances of Chrome are opened:

    how do I change google chrome icon?

    I want to change the icon on the taskbar, I know how to change it in the properties but can't figure out how to add more icon options. For example if I made my own icon and wanted to use it in place of the chrome icon how would I do this?
