I assume you're exporting for Windows? If so, try unchecking this option here in the export menu:

Application -> Modify Resources

enter image description here

Alternatively, as someone else mentioned, you can install and configure rcedit. But it's likely that your project doesn't require it (mine doesn't).

I'm going to transcribe the error image you linked for you:

platform/windows/os_windows_cpp:2905 - Condition "ret == 0" is true. Returned: ERR_CANT_FORK

editor/editor_export.h:251 - Resources Modification: Could not start rcedit executable. Configure rcedit path in the Editor Settings (Export -> Windows -> Rcedit)

Emphasis:

Configure rcedit path in the Editor Settings (Export -> Windows -> Rcedit)

ERR_CANT_FORK means it could not fork start a new process. Which process?

Could not start rcedit executable

If we search Rcedit on Godot's official documentation the following article shows up: Changing application icon for Windows. It says:

Before selecting it in the export options, you will need to install an extra tool called rcedit. You can download it here.

After downloading, you need to tell Godot the path to the rcedit executable on your computer. Go to Editor → Editor Settings → Export → Windows. Click on the folder icon for the rcedit entry. Navigate to and select the rcedit executable.

To reiterate: Configure Rcedit.
