I can pin the Bootstrapper itself to the taskbar and I won't have to worry about opening the Steam.exe, but I have no way of changing the icon for it. Creating a shortcut for Steam.exe does not work! It will leave two icons on the taskbar, when I just want one. The link you gave me told me to go for the Steam.exe which doesn't do anything! It gives me the same exact problem I've explained to you over and over. One to open the Boostrapper and another that is the actual Bootstrapper (which is essentially Steam itself). This means I have two Steam icons on my taskbar. Basically I'll have the shortcut icon on my taskbar (with the edited icon) but when I click on it an additional Steam program opens beside it with the original Steam icon. When you click on a shortcut for Steam, it still opens the Steam Client Bootstrapper (as intended) but it's a separate program entirely. The Steam Client Bootstrapper is the actual Steam program where you can explore the store and your library. The Steam Client Bootstrapper opens through the Steam.exe but it's a different application entirely. This means Steam won't actually use the custom icon I give it, and that icon simply opens up an additional Steam application.
It opens a separate application called the "Steam Client Bootstrapper". Using your solution delivers the exact same problem I experienced from before. This means there won't be "two" Google Chrome applications up on my taskbar, just one. For instance, if I make a shortcut of Google Chrome and change the icon then drag it down to my taskbar and pin it, Google Chrome will keep that icon and won't open a separate program.
The shortcut Steam creates when it is installed is simply a button that opens the program and is not the actual program itself. I actually reinstalled Steam and deleted all of my games just to test this.
