Answer 1

One of the way you can achieve this is:

1. Create an executable Jar file
2. Create a batch file to run the above jar and launch the desktop java application.
3. Use Batch2Exe converter and covert to batch file to Exe.
4. During above conversion, you can change the icon to that of your choice.(must of valid .ico file)
5. Place the short cut for the above exe on desktop.

Now your java program can be opened in a fancy way just like any other MSWindows apps.! :)
