The default icon for Sequetron is black, so won't be visible if your Windows desktop is also black. To change Sequetron's icon to a white one:- Download the SequetronWhite.ico file to a location of your choice Right-click Sequetron's shortcut on the desktop Click Properties Click Change Icon... Click Browse... and select the downloaded icon file Click Ok (actual steps may differ slightly depending on your version of Windows) To revert to the original icon, repeat the above with the SequetronBlack.ico file.
