I tried some tools like VBS to EXE, but the message box is still showing wscript.exe's icon.

    Welcome to SO. You'll want to explore developing a HTML Application (.HTA file), then [review the solutions found here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/175994/can-i-embed-an-icon-to-a-hta-file). HTH. – leeharvey1 Aug 11 '20 at 10:55
  • Try with vbsedit, you can convert any vbs or hta file and adding an icon to executable – Hackoo Aug 11 '20 at 13:21

Sorry for being 2.5 years late, but this might help someone else.

Pin .VBS files to your Start Menu and Taskbar in Windows 10

Add to Start Menu:

  • Open File Explorer.
  • Navigate to the directory of your VBS file.
  • Rename '.vbs' to '.exe'.
  • Right-click on the EXE file, then click on 'Pin to Start'.
  • Rename '.exe' to '.vbs'.
  • Open another File Explorer window.
  • Navigate to (or copy and paste into nav bar): %AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
  • Right-click on the VBS shortcut file, then click on 'Properties'.
  • Change the TARGET path from [PATH][FILE].exe to [PATH][FILE].vbs.
  • Click OK.

Add shortcut link to the Taskbar:

  • Right-click on the VBS shortcut file again, then click on 'Pin to taskbar'.

Found here and then tweaked it a bit: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/dd2b13ef-2968-4f23-b531-57d1e9d634e3/if-you-guys-have-been-trying-hard-to-pin-vbs-files-to-your-start-menu-in-windows-10-look-no?forum=ITCG
