Icon Management

[Caine-Smith]

Description of the new feature / enhancement

The feature should permit modification (editing) of program icons that can otherwise not be modified. This feature could further be extended for more detailed control over the details of executables, but primarily, the ability to upload a new image for the icon and a 'recolor' tool for icons would be appreciated.

As an aside, if this feature could be utilized through RDP or ConnectWise remote sessions without needing to install it on a target computer, that'd be amazing. Though I imagine that would be beyond the scope of this feature, if it is even a possibility.

Scenario when this would be used?

Primarily, I see this utilized in personalization of a client's workspace. However, it also has some use in enterprise environments where there may be multiple variations of the same application that SHOULD have different icons, but utilize a centralized icon instead, leading to confusion.

Supporting information

Although software that does similar already exists (see Resource Hacker), the software that mimics this capability isn't terribly trustworthy. This limits the spaces in which it can be utilized to a great degree. Having this feature available from a more trustworthy and verifiable source such as PowerToys would be an amazing boon.
