http://tech-dump.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/extract_icons.jpgThe question on how to keep an icon from a previous application came up in my article about Imagine, a nice fast image viewer and a reader suggested the Nirsoft software Icons Extract to grab the icon from the old program and put it in a place where you can use it for the new application as well.
Icons Extract offers a very sophisticated way to extract icons from files. You can either scan files, folders or processes that you want to scan for icons. If you know where the icon that you want is located you simply point Icon Extract to that folder or file and the icon will be displayed.

Once the icons are displayed you can save them to your hard drive in ICO and CUR format so that you can change the application's icon to the one that you just extracted. Four filter can be used to narrow down results. You can search for icons and cursors or only one of them and can specify a specific image size and color depth.
