I'm looking for a way to extract Icons from EXE files on Linux.
How can I accomplish this on Linux Ubuntu?
Right-click the EXE file for the software you want to extract an icon from and select Properties. Click the Icons tab shown directly below. Select an icon to extract there.
Otherwise, you can usually find an application's EXE file in sub-folders of C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files (x86) . When you've found the application's EXE file, right-click it and select “Properties.” In the Properties window, click the “Icons” tab.
Getting these icons is very simple. Extract the . apk file (which is the app) using a supported program or app (e.g. Root Explorer on Android, 7zip on Windows) and dig through the folders called drawable-XXXX (e.g. drawable-hdpi) in the /res folder. There you'll have the icons in ready-to-go .
Yo can use wrestool
to extract the windows icons from .exe file
sudo apt-get install icoutils
wrestool -x -t 14 source.exe > output.ico
