Unistall icon default of inno setup

Question

I am using Inno Setup (5.5.3) to create an executable. i wish to use the default uninstall icon (ex: the same uninstall icon of My Program inno setup example). When i create my executable, the uninstall icon of my program is the same icon of the program, and this can generate confusion for the users.

#define MyAppName "Remove xyz-duplicate LiDAR points"
#define MyAppVersion "0.2 Beta"
#define MyAppExeName "remove_duplicate_xyz_executable_project.exe"
