You are wrong, it happens every time the executable changes name.

That's only the "target", the icon is a sepparate setting.

Of course if the target is "run ... xemacs ..." it works for every release
because xemacs is a link to the executable (xemacs-21.4.19.exe is the one I have).

As I said, the icon is inside the executable file, which changes names with each
release.  That's the reason you'll have to go into the properties of your
shortcut and "refresh" the icon path (not really refresh, it will complain first
that the old executable is not found).
