That's not unreasonable. It the system is not to busy, the updates will
have been flushed to the hard drive.

Yes you did, although I'd have to guess how you managed it. My guess is
that rather than creating a Program object for ICE on the Desktop, you
created a shadow of the ICE File object. This, of course, had the title
mr2ice.exe which you did not like, so you changed the title. This also,
changes the file name.

I suggest you create a Program object and this will not reoccur again in
the future.
