Here’s the required file for Unreal Engine to have a proper Windows 8 tile (pictured). [See MSDN][1] for details. This also works in Start8 too. It should be deployed to Launcher\Engine\Binaries\Win64\UnrealEngineLauncher.visualelementsmanifest.xml
<Application xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<VisualElements
BackgroundColor="#222222"
ShowNameOnSquare150x150Logo="on"
ForegroundText="light"
Square150x150Logo="Assets\150x150Logo.png"
Square70x70Logo="Assets\70x70Logo.png"/>
</Application>
Could you add it to a future version of the launcher?
