Can't set an icon
See original GitHub issueI am trying to set the path to the icon, like this:
const msiCreator = new MSICreator({ . . . , iconPath: 'C:/path/to/electron_app/icon/image.ico', });
But when I execute the ‘‘node build_installer.js’’ command to build, I get an error in the console:
Unable to extract icon from exe. Please provide an explicit icon via parameter. Error: Cannot find module 'exe-icon-extractor'.
I don’t know what it is, please, I need help

@layaLils @pichotweb Manually installing
exe-icon-extractorindeed gets rid of the error, butexe-icon-extractoris still a fallback for the case where there is no custom app icon specified in options. It seems that, when specifying a custom icon inMSICreatoroptions, you should useappIconPathinstead of theiconPaththat is mentioned in the README.Seems like that part is actually a documentation bug.
Thank you Seems like the module is missing by default
