# windows-brand-icon-real-taskbar — Organization branding reaches the real Windows taskbar

This Windows-specific proof complements the cross-platform desktop branding flow. It verifies the running app's native taskbar identity without changing the installer, executable, shortcuts, or product name. The test icon is served by the same private, on-prem Daytona Den environment, so the proof does not depend on a public logo CDN.

1. A Windows teammate launches OpenWork and the stock icon is visible in the real taskbar.

2. The organization owner saves a square company icon in Brand Appearance.

3. Without restarting, the visible Windows taskbar and Alt-Tab icon change to the company icon.

4. After closing and relaunching OpenWork, the branded icon appears from the first visible window.

5. Clearing the organization icon restores the stock OpenWork icon.
