Hi there, uffa​, welcome to our Community! 

Let me recap just to make sure we're aligned here. It sounds like you're trying to set a custom taskbar icon for Dropbox on your Windows device, right? 

I have to admit that this sounds like a Windows issue more than a Dropbox one, and it's outside the area of our expertise. However just to provide as much help as I possibly can: have you made sure that the icon you're trying to set is using the correct extension? 

You might also need to restart your Windows Explorer. 

In any case, let me know how things turn out for you!
