Use it all the time to clear the "Run" entry on Windows
Value is "RM.ico" in the right location.
But in the File Associations, .RMDU is associated with Java, so that is the icon they have.

So it the fully qualified path of RM.ico? That's good. Try removing the leading/trailing double quotes.

Sorry, I put those in. The entry is 100% correct. It is the association that means that the Java icon is showing rather than the RM Icon.

Yesterday the DefaultIcon entry was created with the wrong value. It had C:\Windows\System32\RM.ico
Last night Setup.vbs was finally fixed to use the correct path.
I just tested on my XP machine, and found I had to restart windows in order for it to notice the correction.
Have you restarted?

I hadn't, but I have now and you're right, a reboot solved it, all looking good now.
I think we REALLY are there now.
Windows eh, don't you just love it

I've merged SetupAsAdmin.vbs into
Setup.vbs so that Setup.vbs will automatically re-launch itself in the same way SetupAsAdmin would if there is an access violation updating the registry.
Would you please give it a try?

Seems fine, although it's difficult to know what I need to do to de-setup my system to give it a proper test. It certainly run without an error, and builds the shortcuts.
Are you leaving the message in giving the install directory ?

I'll probably take out the messages.
