I have already adjusted all the icons that are part of the config in the squirrel build, yet the icon in the start menu seems to be unaffected:
{
name: '@electron-forge/maker-squirrel',
config: {
authors: 'my corp Inc',
iconUrl: 'https://example.com/img/favicon.ico',
setupIcon: 'images/icon.ico',
},
},
How id I "override" this icon in the start menu?
Noteworthy: The icon in the task bar and the one displayed in the installer are "correct".

I tried it on a fresh windows VM, still showing the strange icon (Its also displayed like that on the Desktop)

Maybe try Conveyor, it packages apps in a different way. You can generate a template electron app (conveyor generate electron my-test-app) and see if it works for you. https://hydraulic.software/

Sounds more like a bandage than a real solution. I'd prefer to stay with the "recommended" way assuming that other people would have the same problems

I am browsing a bit more and it seems to be this issue here https://github.com/electron/windows-installer/issues/365

What gives you the bandage impression? It's designed to be easier to use and more powerful than other packaging solutions. Yes it's not the officially blessed tool, but alternatives by definition never will be.
