Versions:
AmN Icon Extractor 1.0.4 is a lightweight Windows utility designed to harvest icons, cursors and other embedded graphic resources from any 32-bit or 64-bit PE file, producing standard .ico, .cur or .png outputs that can be reused in presentations, documentation, skinning projects or software development. The program parses executables, DLLs, Control Panel applets, ActiveX controls, icon libraries and even memory-loaded modules, displaying every size/color-depth variant stored in the resource section and letting the user extract individual images or entire icon groups with one click. Because it supports drag-and-drop, recursive folder scanning and command-line switches, the tool is frequently used by interface designers who need to build asset catalogs, by support technicians who must document third-party shell extensions, and by reverse-engineers who want to verify digital signatures or check for duplicate resources across system32. The interface lists resource IDs, language codes, pixel dimensions and color formats, while an integrated preview pane scales vectors smoothly so that 256×256 Vista PNGs or 24×24 legacy cursors can be compared side-by-side before export. AmN has released four numbered builds since the debut; version 1.0.4 adds high-DPI awareness, corrects parsing of RT_GROUP_ICON entries that contain mismatched directory sizes, and removes the false-positive warnings some antivirus engines raised on earlier editions. Icon Extractor belongs to the “Icons & Cursor Tools” category, runs on Windows 7 through Windows 11 without dependencies, and stores its settings in a single INI file that can be carried on a flash drive. The software is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources (e.g. winget), always delivering the latest version, and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
