Steps to reproduce:

1). Download candidate build (Such as Beta 70).
2). Installer icon is using the old logo as of version 70.
3). Look at EXE files located here: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/candidates/70.0b3-candidates/build3/

Bugbug thinks this bug should belong to this component, but please revert this change in case of error.

Component: Untriaged → Installer

To clarify, do you mean the icon for the installer itself (the one with the Firefox logo being taken out of a box), or a different one?

Yes that is exactly what I am mentioning. Sorry for the wording.

Okay, thank you, just needed to make sure.

Stephen, can you look into getting an updated installer icon with the new release channel logo?

Thanks, that looks perfect! I'll get a patch ready.

This patch includes:

  • The new icon file itself
  • A modified Win32 SFX binary with the icon resource replaced and no other changes
  • A rebuilt ARM64 binary (because rebuilding it is just as easy as resource hacking it)
  • And I also took the opportunity to update the VC project to the 2019 toolchain
    and removed the requirement for a particular Windows 10 SDK version.

Will this be uplifted to Beta 70 as this is the release that is planned on having the new logo at release?

That's a good idea, I'll request that uplift.
