The benefit is though, you can use the entire tile for it. Here is one option, it's a faff, it's per-application, and you will need a third party tool to grab out the high resolution icon. I'm not sure how it's doing this, so it doesn't work for it. Finally, for reasons I can't explain at the moment, Firefox seems to override this setting, it actually has a different background colour to all my 'default' pinned shortcuts. Also some links, such as Adobe Reader XI seem to not have a valid target in the shortcut, just Adobe Reader XI, so I have no idea how they work and I haven't spent the time trying to make it do so. Currently the link must point to an EXE, containing the icon. I haven't bothered making it work for batches of links so it's one at a time, although that wouldn't be a problem. Here's a video of it in action:īetter video with a removal option added: Gfycat2 Note I've thrown it together in a couple of hours, it's by no means a production quality tool here ). It's simple enough to reverse though, just delete the files mentioned below (One XML file and a folder). If you wanted it, I can release it and the source code, although I have only tested it for myself and I can't take any responsibility for any unknown actions it might have. I have made a utility to do this (Mostly because I wanted it myself.!). The source is a mess with almost no comments, but mostly if anyone wants to check the legitimacy of it. Got a little carried away making it, and changed what I was doing half way through. Some functionality uses PowerShell, but this is optional and turned off by default. Note, you must have Windows 10 November 1511 - Build 10586 or above for this to work. Let me know on GitHub if there are any issues and I'll take a look. I have released a utility and the source code to here if anyone wanted it - Ī video of the functionality can be seen here. Notice the small icon in the pic above - the Steam logo is blurred badly from the down-scaling. Microsoft isĭown-scaling some of the icons that don't provide native 24x24 icons, Most icons are designed for that resolution or higher.
