Please see the MS docs: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/design/style/app-icons-and-logos
Basically, you need to update the manifest file.
UWP apps do not have a way of setting the icon for the .exe file, but this doesn't matter. The icon that will be seen when the app is installed is specified in the Visual Assets tab of the appxmanifest file.
