Is it possible to read the icons from a computer's desktop folder and display them in an application? EDIT: What I mean by "icon" is retrieving the image used to display. Reason being is that some program don't use direct shortcut images by default or a user ops to not create a shortcut when installing a program. As I've already checked my folder, I've noticed icons such as these based on their properties (Type of file):
  • Safari - *.lnk
  • Photoshop - *.png
  • Visual Studio - *.exe
All of these display their icons in some sort of way (png is obviously the easiest), but where this non-image extensions resides isn't exactly clear.
