this is my first time posting here.

Thanks for being patient as I may not have all the language to explain my problem.

Part 1.

I have a .bat file that I am turning into an .exe with the following script from a stackoverflow post here:
Converting .bat to .exe with no additional external software (Create SFX)

It works great, thank you all for that!

Part 2.

I am able to use VisualStudio to edit the .exe “details” after the fact. (icon, name, description, company name, version number, etc.)

Part 3.

The .exe has the correct name in Windows Start menu search, File Explorer, Desktop, etc.

However, when pinning the .exe to the Windows Taskbar, it shows the name “Win32 Cabinet Self-Extractor”. (I’m assuming this is what an .exe “is” or “is doing” when ran, so the name makes sense.)

It appears that taskbar pinned apps are just shortcuts to their respective .executables?

Therefore, if I change the shortcut name in Shortcut>Properties to “MyApp” it will show the correct name MyApp when right clicked on the taskbar, yet the hover tooltip will STILL show “Win32 Cabinet Self-Extractor” See image here:
enter image description here

Guess:

My best guess is that this “default name” is either happening in the original .exe creation OR a key/value is not being set initially in somewhere that could override this.

I’ve scoured the internet to no avail and would greatly appreciate the help!

This is my first attempt ever at deploying a basic application via executable.

TLDR:
Why does my created .exe have a different name when pinned to taskbar and show the correct name everywhere else?

Expectation
Have packaged .exe have same name everywhere (e.g. “MyApp”)

Thank you all!
