Windows 10: Where can I get .exe, .dll, .ico, .icl files to change the icons on my file explorer?

So I've been trying to find how to change icons on file explorer but it directs me on where I can change the icons. I want to customize my icons on my file explorer 'coz its full of folders. Do u know any sites where I could download such icons?

Creating Shortcuts with Batch File

Working Directory needs to match the directory of target which would be "C:\Windows\System32"

You set the icon via: objShortcut.SetIconLocation "C:\Windows\System32\SHELL32.dll", 13

Path is obvious, the number is the index of the icon inside the DLL, EXE, or ICO. You should be able to use Greenfish Icon Editor Pro to see the indices in an ICO file. You can use Resource Hacker to view the indicies in a DLL or EXE.

 

Creating Shortcuts with Batch File

How would the VB script look like with that line you mentioned added into it? I didn't create this VB Script and I'm not very familiar with using it. I'm more familiar with using Batch Command Files. I've created my very own custom icons for practically every program on my system. I usually use Restorator 2007 to edit the icons themselves in the EXE files for the programs but there are some program's that apparently won't work if doing this. So for the one's that won't work with that method, I place the icon(s) in the Pictures folder and then make it hidden after assigning it to the shortcut.

 

Icons on shortcuts

1. Right-click the shortcut.
2. Select "Properties."
3. Click the "Change icon" button on the "Shortcut" tab.
4. Browse to the *.ico file (or *.dll or *.exe file containing icons).
5. Select the icon from those displayed.
6. Click OK
