Changing icon after compiling (Python)

Question

I'm using Python 2.7, and pyinstaller in order to make an exe.

Everything works just fine, but the exe file's icon is the PyInstaller icon.

Is there a way to change the icon?

But don't quite understand it.

Yes, try:

pyinstaller.exe --onefile --windowed --icon=app.ico app.py

Found in this guide. A quick Google search will lead you to tons of .ico files if you need one.
