Thank you for posting this, I needed to get some icons for my new Streamdeck and after a lot of searching (and not wanting to install another application that needs admin rights) I finally found this.
For example here is the VS Code icon:
C:\Users\{MY USERNAME}\AppData\Local\Programs\Microsoft VS Code\Code.exe\.rsrc\1033\ICON\2.ico
There is also a file called1
which seems to be a PNG according to the header.Edit: Seems like the best way to get the best icon is to find the largest file. Numbering is unreliable, Windows Terminal for instance has 0 as its lowest resolution. Files without extensions seem to be PNGs. I think the PNGs should generally be the best resolution, in VS Code's case it's smaller than the largest icon, but I suspect that's because of better compression.
