Howdy! I also have this problem. Using Nemo 6.0.2 properties dialog I
can change the icon. However:

On Ubuntu 24.04.1 Noble Numbat desktop, when I right-click an icon and
choose Properties:

(1) If the file does not have a custom icon, there seems no option to do
anything with the icon.

(2) If the file has a custom icon, and the desktop shows it, then
Properties shows it also, but only offers an erase badge, not a way to
edit/replace the icon.

(3) If the file has a custom icon but the desktop does NOT show it, then
Properties shows the custom icon but does not offer any options.

In GNOME Project Files 46.2, the custom icon seems to always be visible.
However, when I right click the icon and choose Properties, the behavior
is the same as when when I right-click > Properties from the desktop (I
see an Erase badge in Files if I would see one on Desktop).

Thank you in advance for working to address this, as it is quite an
annoyance to have upgraded Ubuntu only to lose functionality that worked
flawlessly in Jammy Jellyfish!
