Hi,

I am bumping this rather old message.

When I try to add icon via .rc file or version information as first post of this thread I get error in linking.

Linking...
LINK : fatal error 
LNK1123: failure during conversion to COFF: file invalid or corrupt

I checked this couple of times with "clean/rebuild".

I get same linking error if I follow this for Application Icon
http://www.ultimatepp.org/forum/index.php?t=msg&goto=206 11&

Win7, MSC10, UPP-5800

This application works well in debug, optimal, speed mode compilation without .rc file.

Same code compiles and links fully with MINGW using .rc file and shows application icon in file browser as well as application running. It also shows version information in file properties.

MINGW Debug mode compiled application runs ok
MINGW optimal release mode links ok but crashes on run( with or without .rc file)
