Work Day with God v1.4.1 — Windows taskbar icon fix

Version 1.4.1 is a focused Windows patch that replaces Electron’s default atom icon on the live taskbar button with the Work Day with God application artwork.

This release includes every feature and fix from v1.4.0, including safer reminder scheduling, timer dropdowns, Auto sunrise-to-sunset colour mode, smooth navigation transitions, and isolated development caches.

Fixed

  • Changed the live Windows BrowserWindow from the large source PNG to the generated multi-resolution Windows .ico.
  • Explicitly bound the taskbar window to com.mcographics.workdaywithgod and the packaged executable’s embedded icon resource.
  • Reapplied the branded icon when the frameless application window becomes ready, preventing Electron’s default icon from remaining during startup.
  • Added native 20×20 and 40×40 icon representations for Windows taskbars at 125% and common high-DPI scaling levels.
  • The generated Windows icon now contains 16, 20, 24, 32, 40, 48, 64, 128, and 256 px 32-bit representations.
  • Added regression tests that parse the ICO directory and verify the dimensions, bit depth, offsets, and PNG signature of every embedded icon image.
  • Added source-level checks for the taskbar AppUserModelID and packaged executable icon binding.

Packaged verification

  • 31 automated tests passed.
  • The production Vite build completed successfully.
  • A fresh Windows x64 NSIS installer was produced with Electron 43.2.0.
  • Installer product version: 1.4.1.
  • Packaged executable product version: 1.4.1.0.
  • The packaged application launched with an isolated local test profile and created a responsive native window.
  • At the test machine’s 125% Windows scaling, the live native window exposed a 40×40 large/taskbar icon and a 20×20 small icon.
  • The packaged executable exposed the matching 40×40 embedded Work Day with God icon.
  • The extracted native icon was visually inspected and confirmed to contain the Work Day with God artwork rather than Electron’s atom logo.

Before installing, fully quit any running Work Day with God instance from its system-tray menu. If the application was pinned to the taskbar before installing v1.4.1 and Windows continues showing a cached icon, unpin the old shortcut and pin Work Day with God again after launching the updated application.

The installer is currently unsigned. Windows SmartScreen may display Unknown publisher. If you trust this release, choose More info, then Run anyway.
