I am developing an app that would have 2 icons in the launcher (just like Google Maps which has Maps and Places). In the official Android documentation, it is mentioned that activities can have their own android:icon element. So I did the following in the Manifest file:
In the Objects\res\drawable folder, I put 2 files - icon.png and launcher.png. The main activity gets icon.png correctly. I was hoping by giving android:icon="@drawable/launcher" it would select launcher.png in the drawable folder for the activity named Launcher, just like how it picked icon.png in drawable folder for the main activity. But instead I get the error
Also the file launcher.png gets deleted automatically as well, as soon as I get this error. Or may be that happened first, which triggered this error. Either way, the file gets deleted and I get the error. Any idea what went wrong here?

<application android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="Browserapp">
<activity android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden" android:launchMode="singleTop" android:name=".main"
android:label="Browser" android:screenOrientation="portrait">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden" android:launchMode="singleTop" android:name="Launcher" android:icon="@drawable/launcher" android:label="Browser Launcher" android:screenOrientation="portrait">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
