Hey all, I believe I have solved this by using a different way to export the icons. The changes are in this pull request: https://github.com/chrisknepper/android-messages-desktop/pull/11/files

The icon appears correctly on my Windows machine now (see screenshot). I'll push an update to 0.0.5 shortly. If, after the update you still have a corrupt icon on Windows, try clearing your Windows icon cache and if that doesn't work, unpinning/re-pinning the program to the taskbar. Please let me know if this fixes or doesn't fix the icon, and I apologize for the icon weirdness as well!

Strange, I didn't notice that until now. I'm using electron-icon-maker to generate the Windows .ico from a .png. Wonder if it was a fluke, or if there's an incompatibility between that tool and certain types of png files. I'll take a look into this as soon as i can. Thanks for reporting!

I don't think this is isolated to your app, I have other Electron-based apps that do this too, namely Google Play Desktop Music Player.

Here's a similar issue in that repo: New logo is broken on Windows #3069

It seems to be related to pinning items to the taskbar, and I can also see it happening with GPDMP. I took this video of it (zoom in and you can see how the artifact goes away when the apps are unpinned). I'll post it up on their repo too. Oddly, I've tried 2 different utilities to make the icons. We'll have to spend more time on this. I have a hunch it's the source that gets bundled into the ICO. Old-school is BMP, new-school is PNG, but electron-builder seems to not like when it gets a PNG-based ICO.

Similarly, the app icon on Mac is scrambled when viewed in finder.

And when the notifications come in, the icon is also.

Just chiming in to say that it looks like it's been fixed for me, thanks for the update!
