This is a minor issue, and it occurs also with HM1. Once i have installed HM2, the program icon suddenly disappears, and a standard windows icon replaces it (as if the program doesn't have an associated icon)

What is your operating system? Is this the shortcut on the desktop? Is it the icon in the folder? Where is the icon?

OS: Windows 7 Professional 64 bits
The shorcut is on the taskbar, and it is also on the start menu and in the HM2 folder

I've seen this happen a few times with various programs. Here's some info I found online:

Rebuild the Icon Cache Database and check if it helps.
a. Close all folder windows that are currently open.
b. Launch Task Manager using the CTRL+SHIFT+ESC key sequence, or right click on taskbar and click on "Start Task manager".
c. In the Process tab, right-click on the Explorer.exe process and select End Process.
d. Click the End process button when asked for confirmation.
e. From the File menu of Task Manager, select New Task (Run).
f. Type "cmd.exe" (without quotes), and click OK.
g. In the command prompt window, type the commands one by one and press ENTER after each command:
CD /d %userprofile%\AppData\Local
DEL IconCache.db /a
EXIT
h. In Task Manager, click File, select New Task (Run).
i. Type "explorer.exe" (without quotes), and click OK.
j. Check if the issue is fixed.
