Task switcher Icon

Hello.

Im developing a application in vb.net. My problem is that the Icon of the Task Switcher(by hitting alt tab) doesnt alway show up, I have defined the same icon for all the different windows.

However I have a very strange behaivor, when ever the window has the proper icon the task manager inly has a grey/blank icon, and if the task switch show the rigth icon the window icon is not correctly displayed...

Im really struggeling with this problem and I would appriciate some help.

Best regards

An icon can contain multiple images with varying sizes and color depth. Windows picks the most suitable one to display in the taskbar button or Alt+Tab strip. When you create a new icon from scratch, the IDE automatically creates two images, 16 x 16 and 32 x 32. You probably forgot to paint one of them. Click on Image + Current Icon Image Types to see the list of images...
