Advanced Icon Extractor

Windows executables and Dynamic Link Libraries (DLL files) often contain icons, and it is possible to extract these images with the right utility.

Advanced Icon Extractor is one such tool, a relatively simple application that allows you to grab icons embedded in EXE and DLL files. It supports multiple output resolutions and is very easy to use.

Advanced Icon Extractor is very novice-friendly, as you can import EXE or DLL files by simply dragging them onto the application window.

It is possible to load multiple files at the same time, and they are all displayed in the sidebar in a tree-like structure. Each source file is listed as a folder, and you can expand or collapse them to view or hide the contained icons.

When selecting an icon, the application displays all the available sizes, and you can extract any of them, but it does not seem to be possible to save multiple items at the same time.

You can also select multiple icons and separate them, as well as change the size of the visualization.

Advanced Icon Extractor is not only simple to use, but it can be deployed almost instantly, as you do not have to go through an installation procedure once you have downloaded the program.

It is very well suited for people who need a tool that can be used on the go, as it can be stored on a USB drive and launched on any computer that meets the software requirements without leaving any traces behind.

Advanced Icon Extractor is a straightforward, no-nonsense application that keeps things simple and does its job well. It can help you extract icons from EXE and DLL files, and it features a minimalistic, intuitive user interface.
