Downloaded from where as the preview is presumably generated by the webserver? 
Does it look correct when looked at with the Windows File Explorer?

Yes, my icon looks correct in the windows file explorer.
I am compiling using Aut2Exe on Windows 10.

Great, so the EXE is correct, but you didn't answer my first statement&question. ;) 

Sorry, I do not fully understand the question you asked. Do you want the URL where I downloaded the file?

You say the Icon is not shown correctly by Chrome when you look at the webpage that has the download...   right?
I simply stated/asked that the Webserver of that site is generating a thumbnail that is shows for the download which you say is wrong?

Actually the problem is google chrome shows the first icon inside the downloaded file. And when this icon is compiled by Aut2Exe, it is the icon left in the file.

Ok ... I see what you mean now. 

It looks like Chrome is using the 16x16 ICO number 1 and that looks like a remains of the old icon set.
I have no idea why aut2exe does that and needs investigation what is going on there.

@jpm, Do you have any idea about this?

Thank you for your interest. For now, I am solving my problem by using a resource hacker to delete the icon.

Hi I don't understand what a drag & drop on a browser can display something.

If I do it on MS Edge chromium it is equivalant to download the file so where the icon must display.

from the point of view of aut2exe the file is created with the first icon being the requested icon.

Sorry for not helping much

Cheers

Don't worry about the chrome thing...  Just check the resources of a compiled script that has an alternative ICO defined.
When you check the Icon section in REsHacker, you will find that the first image is an original one as shown ( the boxed in Plus sign) and there is still an remaining icon_group for it, while the original complete Icon_group should totally be removed.

Compile arguments

It would be good to have an argument or way to replace the Icon #1 right from ... somewhere.
But you have that ResHacker. Just rightclick on the icon and select "Replace icon ..." and you can replace the "icon  group" 99 with the 169 to solve that.
Fortunately you are not stuck in a problem without a solution. :)

I think the issue raised is clear and don't need suggestions for workaround as that was also already made clear. ;)
