Mac OSX Icon not updating after export

I'm trying to export my game, but for some reason, every time I do it, the icon is just the default GameMaker icon instead of the one I set! What's going on? (I'm on Mac)

nevermind, i figured it out. turns out I had to do the little clean-up feature at the top of the screen.

I remember this being an issue in the past as well... especially in GMS1.x, to be 100% sure the icon gets updated, you should do a cache clear and also restart GameMaker. I think it has something to do with the export graphics not being generated in the same pass as the texture pages.

It could also sometimes be an issue on windows side. Sometimes windows will not refresh icons unless you clear the cache somehow. I forget how I used to do it, but i'm sure you can find some online resource helping with that.
