How to extract an icon form an application (using IconsExtract)

IconsExtract is a very simple tool that extracts icons from applications.
It is a portable application that can be used without having to install it (nothing will be modified on your system).
The website of IconsExtract is: https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/iconsext.html

Installation

• Just download the ZIP-File from the following website:
  https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/iconsext.zip

• Unzip the file in any folder of your choice like (like C:\temp\IconsExtract).
  In Windows 10 you just need to double click the ZIP file and select Extract all from the menu.
  Then select the target folder.

---

Starting IconsExtract

Just double click the file IconsExt in the folder where you have unpacked IcoFX (like C:\temp\IconsExtract).

---

Extracting an Icon

Before you can extract an icon from an application you have to find out where the application is stored.
Most applications are stored in the folders:

• C:\Program Files
• C:\Program Files (x86)

Search in these folders for the name of your application.

To extract an icon perform the following steps in IconsExtract:

1. Click on the Browse Files button and select the file of the application.
   You also can enter the file path and the application file manually (you can copy the complete path from the scan results page in VulnDetect)

2. Select the checkbox Icons and unselect the checkbox Cursors.
   You want to extract an icon and not a mouse cursor.

3. Click on the Search For Icons button

---

4. Now select the icon you want to extract
   Some applications have multiple icons stored, here you have to select the icon that is also shown on your desktop or in your start menu.
   This should normally be the top-left icon in the list.

5. Click on the Button Save

---

6. Select the folder where the icon should be stored.
   By default this will be the subfolder "Icons" in the folder where you have extracted IconsExtract (so you don't need to change anything)

7. Click on the Button Save Icon

---

8. IconsExtract will eventually ask you if the folder should be created.
   In this case select Yes

---

Now you can

• send us the icon via email (tom [at] vulndetect [dot] com) or
• attach the icon to a forums posting

Thank you for your help!

How to extract an icon form an application (using IcoFX)

IcoFX (http://icofx.ro) is a very powerful icon editor that can be used to create and modify icon files.
It also can be used to extract icons form applications.

Normally IcoFX must be installed, but there is also a portable version available that can be used without having to install it (nothing will be modified on your system).
Here we describe the usage of the portable version only.

Installation (Portable Version)

• Just download the portable version from the following website:
  https://portableapps.com/apps/graphics_pictures/icofx_portable

• Double click the downloaded file.
  The assistant will now prompt you for a folder, where the portable application will be copied to.
  This can be any folder of your choice like (like C:\temp\IcoFX) but also an USB device.

Note:
The installer will place some files in this folder directly, so you should create a separate folder named "IcoFX".
