What is this nonsense?

What kind of application icon is that???  I guess it's Emerson's turn to mark their territory?  Remember when a change in the top level management resulted in the NI Bird getting the axe and the NI Blue changed to Ugly Green?

I fixed this. I went into package manager and updated runtime engine. That's it. I make 5-10 applications a month and have never seen this. The original version of this source code was written in LV2015 and ran under 2015 runtime. I just recompiled in 2023 and ran under 2023 runtime. I made no changes to language setting anywhere.

I don't know. It works. I'll call it a solution.

It's been like that for years. Its from when NXG was a thing and influenced LabVIEW.

Oh, my Windows icon looks different, and I am on LV 2023.

May be you talking about developent environment, but here we discussing the application.

This is how LabVIEW2023Q3 32-bit (Windows) looks by default — Development vs Run-Time App:

I think something similar happened to me ~12 years ago, but i don't remember how i fixed it ... Strange that you needed to repair, but good that it worked.

That exactly explains it.  It's been so long since I've seen the default executable icon.  I've used custom icons for so long, I've forgotten how awful it looked.  It looks even worse than before.  😄
