I saw an answer about changing the Chrome icon when Chrome is running (post)
I tried everything, I literally opened every file I could with Resource hacker and changed any icons I could find that had the Chrome icon and still nothing.

Create a shortcut for Google Chrome in any folder, change it's icon and pin it to the taskbar. If it is already pinned to the taskbar, you have to unpin it first.
- Close Chrome
- Shift + right click on its taskbar icon
- Properties
- Change Icon...
- Browse
- Choose the directory and the image file (must be a
.icofile) - OK > OK
There is a delay in changing icons in the taskbar so you will need to wait a few minutes (or until the next system reboot) to see the selected icon appear.
