Have never liked the bright orange Firefox icon, but suddenly firefox is not letting me change it to the older one I like much better
Have never liked the bright orange Firefox icon, it's too dominating on my desktop, I LOVE the older brownish firefox icon, it's just right. So every time you come out with a Firefox update I get out "Resource Hacker" and change the icon to the older one, pictured below. I mentioned this before, asking if you could just give that option, and didn't receive a response. You come out with so many updates, it's a hassle changing the icon every time, but I'm willing to pay the price to escape the distracting bright orange icon, but now suddenly Firefox won't let me alter the icon in the exe. Was wondering if you'd have any suggestions. Have used Firefox exclusively for decades. Thank you very much.

Was finally able to change the icon. My apoligies, this means it wasn't Firefox blocking me. For the first time tried rebooting after using Resource Hacker and the change occurred at that point. Thank you, long live Firefox!

I think it would be easier to create a shortcut to firefox.exe on your desktop. Changing the icon of a shortcut is permanent and much easier than editing the exe file every update.
The short cut is the easiest thing to change, but that doesn't effect how the browser appears on the Taskbar when in use which shows the bright orange icon in addition to the start icon - I want that changed too, just looks like a bright orange ball on my task bar. But thank you for the suggestion, I appreciate it.
