Have you tried restarting your computer? Or reinstalling the app? It’s not missing for everybody, so probably best to figure out what’s going on in your system.

Is the _only_ concern is that the icon is missing in the Windows add/remove apps list? Is this really a _problem_ for anyone?

Is the icon failing to appear on the desktop, or Start menu, or taskbar, or program folder? Those seem like the locations where it might matter.

The icon is missing only in the `Windows add/remove apps list` for me. All other places display icon correctly (`taskbar`, `task manager`, etc).  
The absence of the icon in the `apps list` doesn’t bother me at all. Just reported that xDodge is not the only one with missing icon.
