I made an installer in NSIS. When i'm installing it on Windows 7 everything is perfect.
When i do same on Windows XP the icon of the installer is missing.
Also when the installer finished the shortcuts icons images are missing as well.
What am i doing wrong?
If I remember correctly, the maximum icon size for XP is 32x32.
If you are using an icon made for Win7 that is bigger than 32x32 and that does not include alternative sizes (32x32, 16x16), it is likely that the icon won't be displayed correctly on XP.

I have installed the sidebar enhancements package using the package installer in ST3 on Windows 10.
The installation does not seem to have worked correctly.
Right clicking the sidebar only shows a few options.
I've tried reinstalling it but the problem persisted.
Can anyone help?
I just migrated from a Windows machine to a Linux machine and I use Eclipse. In eclipse, on the windows machine, I used to have multiple buttons in the top right of the console view for starting, stopping, etc. In the Linux version of Eclipse I only have these buttons when I hover over maximize in the console view, and then they snap back after a brief period. Is there a way to make these buttons permanent in the console view on Eclipse for Linux?

It looks like this was an issue with the theme I was using (Moonrise UI). I switch the eclipse theme to either Moonrise (Standalone) or to Dark from Moonrise and my issue was fixed!
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.

I'm obviously missing something, but what? Thanks very much.
The designer you're looking for is from a 3rd party commercial product:

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':
I've been using custom editor colors for Visual Studio for a few years now, through several versions. I just updated 2013 to Update 4, and now all my colors got screwed up. I reset to the default dark theme to go from there, and I noticed you can no longer change the color of classes and structs, or any identifier for that matter (I use C#). Instead they use the default color. What is happening?
EDIT: This seems to have occurred for VS2012 as well...
I found the source of my problem: Color Theme Editor Extension
It turns out that when the problem occurred I had the color theme editor installed on VS2013 Pro and VS2012 Pro. Even after I disabled it in VS2013, the problem remained in VS2013 Pro and VS2012 Pro and Express for Windows Desktop, so I dismissed that as the cause at first.
What was odd is that it did not occur in VS2013 Express for Windows Desktop. Resetting Visual Studio (any problematic version) to default settings did not fix the problem, it only made it less noticeable. I still had custom fonts and colors from my VS2013 Express installation, so I exported them then imported them into VS2013 Pro.
For anyone else who seems to be getting this issue because of this extension, try installing 2013 Express and re-creating your custom fonts and colors there, and importing the settings back into Premium/Professional/Ultimate. I am not sure if it will work for everyone, but doing that with my previous install worked for me.
I have created the exe file from jar and used this exe to create the installer using Inno setup. However when I install the system tray icon is not changing to custom icon I am proving in the .iss script. With Inno Setup the application icon which is displayed in Start > Program Files is picked up correctly but not the system tray icon.
I used the resource hacker to verify that the exe file has the image which needs to be displayed in the system tray. When Installing I do get prompted to select the desktop icon and quicklaunch icon. Desktop icon is picked correctly but not the quicklaunch icon.
Could some one suggest how to customize the system tray icon (quicklaunchicon).
#JerryDodge Thank you for the clues. The jar itself had the icon file which needed to be replaced. After replacing it, everything worked.
