The Default icon field is automatically populated after selecting the application executable in the Command line field.

To refresh the icon, select in the Default icon field.

To choose a different application icon, select in the Default icon field. Custom icons are always shown in the size in which they are uploaded. If this size is not large enough for Microsoft Windows operating systems, then icons look pixelated if users choose to use larger icons for the applications. If this is undesirable, use one of the following methods to correct it:

• Upload a larger version of the custom icon and set the MSIX application to use that version instead.

• Disable the use of large icons in Workspace Control sessions. This is done from Composition > Desktop > Lockdown and Behavior. In the Settings tab, navigate to the Microsoft Windows Shell section and deselect the Use high quality default icons instead of custom icons (Windows Vista and higher) option.

• Workspace Control considers an icon to be a high-quality icon if the uploaded file is an ICO file or it contains more than one icon.

• When selecting a different (custom) icon for a MSIX application, user sessions need to log off and on again for the change to take effect.

This is the actual MSIX package location where it is stored on the network. The location should be available to User Sessions to successfully deploy the MSIX package.
