How to change the Release icon? [VS .NET C++-CLI] - visual-studio-2012

I know this is a simple question, but it's being a headache for me.
I have my C++-CLI application on VisualStudio written with .NET framework. I only want to generate my .exe file with a custom icon.
Searching on the internet I only could be able to find the next solution:
Poject node -> Properties -> Application tab -> And here I can set the icon.
But my Visual Studio does not count with that 'Application' tab (I have VS2012).
How can I set the icon to my .exe file?
Thank you in advance.

Visual Studio 2022 - File Add New Item CSS, HTML, JS missing

I have 2019 Web Project I'm trying to open in Visual Studio 2022 and it's missing a lot of common file types, HTML, CSS, JS and Text to name a few. If I open the project by going to File -> Open -> Folder the expected file types are available but the Azure Dev Ops integration doesn't work.
Any pointers on how to get this working. Someone recommended building the New Item file templates but that seems like a chore for such a simple set of file types.
Update: If I change the Solution Explorer view to Folder View then I can add the files I expect, but with Folder View I can't check-in or publish. I will need to toggle between Solution View & Folder View complete those actions. To clarify further, how/what populates the Solution Explorer(Solution View) -> Add New Item menu?
In Visual Studio 2022, the .NET Framework project and item templates are now optional components. At the time of installing VS 2022, you need to manually check this option on the ASP.NET and web development section. If somehow this got missed during the installation, you can enable it by following the below steps:-
Open Visual Studio Installer
Click on Modify
Expand Asp.Net and web development
Check .Net Framework project and item templates
Screenshot:-
The above steps will bring back the missing HTML, CSS, JS, and other templates
One of the workaround you can follow to resolve the above issue,
We are trying the same with console application and trying to add html and can able to get it as well using VS-2022 with version 17.2.6.
Make sure that you have open the correct project in your environment.
HERE ARE THE SCREENSHOT FOR REFERENCE:-
Alternatively if you want to add an item template to the Add New Item dialog box in visual studio please refer this MICROSOFT DOCUMENTATION| How to Create item templates
For more information please refer the below links:-
SIMILAR SO THREAD|Can't find ADO.net Entity Data Model template in VS2017 .
This is a pain. It happened to me with the last upgrade. To fix it, open the installer, select "Web and Cloud", then "ASP.NET and web development." Check all the boxes through Intellicode, and then check ".Net Framework project and item templates".

What is an "AddOn" project?

I have an Acumatica instruction document that seems to be from a much older version of Acumatica. In the documentation, it mentions that I need to go to System -> Customization -> Manage -> Customization Projects and select the Visual Studio Drop Down -> Create AddOn Project. Currently I do not see the Visual Studio drop down as mentioned in this document.
Does this option still exist in newer version of Acumatica? If so, how do I access it? If not, does anyone know what type of project I need to create in Visual Studio to manually do what this option did?
An Add-On project is a visual studio solution containing your Acumatica extension in the form of a dynamically linked library. You can access it by opening the Project Editor for customizations and going to the Extension Library menu.
Updated Acumatica training documents are available at the following URL:

WIX in VS 2012 Menu and Commands missing

I just installed WIX 3.10 and I'm using VS 2012 Ultimate. I have then successfully added a WIX setup project to my solution but that's about as far as I can go because the WIX menu is not showing up. The commands buttons that should appear at the top of the solution explorer window does not appear, neither does the shortcut button that appears just below the 'clean' button when you right click the project. I have tried uninstalling and restarting my PC several times but still the same.
snap shot of the solution explorer window.
I'm obviously missing something, but what? Thanks very much.
The designer you're looking for is from a 3rd party commercial product:
https://www.add-in-express.com/wix-designer/index.php
Normally one would write most Wix files by hand. It's relatively simple XML and the documentation isn't bad.
You can install the extension: Tools -> Extensions and Updates
Then in the search box type 'wix' and Enter.
The extension name is 'Designer for Visual Studio Wix Setup Projects':

AnhkSVN not showing up in VS2012 Web

I just installed AnkhSvn-2.4.11610 with the intent of using it with VS2012 Express for Web but it's not showing up in the Plug-In Selection drop-down-box.
Does anyone know what might be wrong?
Many thanks.
In VS2012 Go to Tools -> Options... -> Source Control -> Plug-In Selection -> complement choice AnkhSVN - Subversion Support for Visual Studio (In the Current Source control plug-in Drop Down List Select this option) then it will work.
Yes. Visual Studio Express versions don't allow source code control plugins.
