I made 2 shortcuts in System Editors\Shortcuts. Both are for the SartMenu. I want to use a Custom Icon in both. I get this error message when trying to do so.

light.exe : warning LGHT1076 : ICE36: Icon Bloat. Icon Q_0001.ico is not used in the Class, Shortcut, or ProgID table and also not used for ARPPRODUCTICON property.
light.exe : warning LGHT1076 : ICE36: Icon Bloat. Icon Utils_0001.ico is not used in the Class, Shortcut, or ProgID table and also not used for ARPPRODUCTICON property.

If I set up an icon(Q.ico ) in Project\ Settings\ Project Settings\ which is one of the icons I intend to use in System Editors\Shortcuts, then that icon shows up and the error message (light.exe : warning LGHT1076 : ICE36: Icon Bloat. Icon Q_0001.ico is not used in the Class, Shortcut, or ProgID table and also not used for ARPPRODUCTICON property.) is not shown.

I also setup the Project\ Settings\ Project Settings\ icon and then used the same icon for both System Editors\Shortcuts and everything worked. I am not sure where to go from here.

I looked into it and that is a bug in SUFWI. The light warning is correct because we didn't write out the Icon attribute for the Shortcut element in that case. This causes the custom icon setting to have no effect - the icon will not show up for the file anyhow. This has been fixed for the next service release (possibly later this week).
