IconExport

Fork of the deprecated IconExport module from TechNet

Planned Additions

• Native PowerShell without in-line C#
• Use of the .NET Core [Drawing.Icon]::ExtractIcon() method (if running as PS 7) which allows for both icon index and size, which .NET Framework doesn't contain, only providing ExtractAssociatedIcon().
• Support for UNC paths.
• Extracting to the source directory by default.
• Automatically naming the icon after its source, with the index and size appended to avoid clobbering. The hidden FileInfo and DirectoryInfo property .PSIsContainer would help there.

Possible Additions

• Support for embedded icons in resources other than EXE and DLL... e.g.:
  • MSI. No idea how this would be done yet.
  • LNK. First getting the icon path and then extracting from there.
  • .Website (?). Easy enough, as if I recall correctly, the file follows an INI format with the field pointing to an icon file.
• Support for index and sizes other than 32px in PowerShell Desktop.
