Change Icon/Tale app
I am trying to change the default Unity Icon to a personalized icon I made with Photoshop.
I never had problems with other devices, but with the Hololens it seems it doesn't change.
I changed all the icons from the Package.appxmanifest
and I also changed the icons in Unity>Player Settings>Icon
Is there anything I am missing?
Thanks!

Hi @jdthamores,
Is the icon you are trying to change the one that appears on the Windows Menu:
If so, the above icon for the HouseReno app appeared after I created replacement images for the six default set of icons that come in the UWP app that Unity builds for you. For simplicity in this case I only changed them in the Visual Studio solution.
In particular it was the file named Square150x150Logo.scale-200.png which if you check the default image before you replace it you will see it is actually 300x300 pixels in size.
In Visual Studio it was the following image:
I did notice that it appeared correctly on the emulator right off the bat (which I believe is due to the fresh instance of the emulator not having a previous version of the app installed on it) but that I had to restart on the actual HoloLens device before I saw the change occur in the menu (I suspect because the app was previously deployed to the HoloLens with the default icon).
EDIT: There is a relevant page in the Holographic Documentation that may also be helpful.

Thanks @HoloSheep. The problem was solved after restarting the Hololens.

Thanks @HoloSheep，First I override the previous app,but icon didn't change.
then I unistall my app and reintall again,but didn't work too.
How embarrassed.
From a strictly Unity perspective (easier to manage for a variety of reasons) I've successfully set this in:
Player Settings... > Icon
Then scroll down to "Universal 10 Tiles and Logos" and find "Square 310x310 Logo" and set the logo for the "Scale 150%"
I'm pretty sure a few other ones will work as well, while others definitely do nothing.
Yeah it seems like the icon only updates on a hard restart of the device.
