I made a custom link to my Google Drive directory on the Windows 7 Professional application bar. Now I'd like to change that icon, so that it's obvious it's the Google Drive folder.

I made a custom link to my Google Drive directory on the Windows 7 Professional application bar. Now I'd like to change that icon, so that it's obvious it's the Google Drive folder.
How do I find the Google Drive icon?
Find the installation folder of Google Drive and the executable googledrivesync.exe
(e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Drive\googledrivesync.exe
).
Right click -> Properties -> Change Icon
Since most Windows versions and Windows programs have moved or will move to 64-bit, this icon can now be found here. Take note, the icon displayed on the .exe
is (probably) the one you're looking for, but that .exe
contains a dozen or so icons if you choose it as a source, just like most do.
C:\Program Files\Google\Drive\googledrivesync.exe
If you happen to still be on a 32-bit system (doubtful), then as duDE said above, it will be:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Drive\googledrivesync.exe
if you only can select image format (png, jpg....) create a desktop.ini file
