As I understand it, when you’re looking at a folder in Explorer, a binary’s icon is determined by RT_GROUP_ICON within .rsrc. But many applications get distributed with a bin/program_name.ico
file. What is that file for, if not for use by the binary?
For a particular example, I’m looking at PyCharm. C:Program FilesJetBrainsPyCharm 2023.2.5bin
contains:
<code>pycharm64.exe
pycharm.ico
</code>
<code>pycharm64.exe
pycharm.ico
</code>
pycharm64.exe
pycharm.ico
