Favicon as app icon regression

TheJaredWilcurt opened this issue · 0 comments

In some older versions I can load up this app:

{
  "name": "test",
  "main": "index.html"
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <link rel="icon" href="black.ico" >
  </head>
  <body>
  </body>
</html>

Then the start bar will show the correct icon and the window title bar will have the correct icon. I can then change the href to white.ico and both visible icons update automatically.

And yes you are reading that right. The bug comes and goes at a few different previous versions. Very weird.
