Icon is not showing up in Qt Main Window

My Qt application contains a Main Window. I added resource into project and added an icon to the resource. From the main window source file I used the following line to load the icon to the main window. 

this->setWindowIcon(QIcon("://img/Icon.ico"));

When I run the application from Qt creator, it shows the icon in the mainwindow BUT when I run the exe from the executable path directly(copied all Qt dependency dlls into that folder) it is not showing the icon in the main window.

Not sure what I am missing.

Put qico.dll in the imageformats directore near executable.

MyAppDir\YourApp.exe
MyAppDir\imageformats\qico.dll

On future, every format except of png should have dll. For example qgif.dll and so on.
