Is there a way to permantly replace the default .ico with a custome one?

This hasn't been clarified to you, but QB64-PE does not supply _any_ icon to built EXE's unless the program specifies one. The icon you're likely seeing is simply the default Windows icon it displays when a program lacks an icon. Thus there's no icon file you can overwrite to change it because QB64-PE simply isn't including an icon at all.

The easiest solution is to add `$EXEICON:''` to all your source files. The other option would be making modifications to QB64-PE itself to include an icon into programs that don't request one.
