Description Environment :
Windows 10 (Version 2004 build 19041.329)
Latest release + also tried using a binary compiled from source.
Description :
I'm not sure if it has something to do with Qt generated installers using Qt's IFW , but I can definitely confirm this happened to me multiple times after trying to use the --set-icon command:
rcedit installer.exe --set-icon "path"
I even ran into the same issue trying to run this command on a Windows Sandbox, resulting to completely crashing the VM.
To reproduce this, you can use the exact sample binary I used that triggered this issue from here:
https://github.com/giladreich/QuickCut/actions/runs/165701757
and download one of the Setup samples.
