I am trying to change the name of my win32 console application in task manager. In c# console project I can set the AssemblyTitle
in project file and it would work but for some reason when I can't achieve the same result here.
First, right-click the Resource file to add a .rc
file.
Then double-click the .rc
file to enter the resource view, right-click the resource file and select Add Resource
, and select Version
.
In the VS_VERSION_INFO
, you can modify the FileDescription
to your application name (of course you can also modify other application information.).
Finally build the project and this works for me.
This describes exactly what I was looking for, thanks.
