I had two problems:

  • My .ico file was not being accepted by Eclipse, so I grabbed the Eclipse icon, opened it in GIMP and changed their respective images / layers for mine in PNG format . When exporting, I unselected all options to compress the images . Set an image for the 16x16 , 32x32 , 48x48 and 256x256 sizes; such as 32-bit and 8-bit alpha channel ; plus an image for the 16x16 , 32x32 and 48x48 sizes; such as 8 bits and 1 bit alpha channel ;

  • The process of exporting my product was taking the icon of the last export and not the one I defined. So I changed the Launcher Name in the Launching tab of the .product file, which caused the cache to be updated and the new icon was used.

  • OBS: For the second problem, updating the operating system icon cache already resolves.
