Return Value
IconThe icons of the specified file, or an empty array if the file does not exist or does not contain any icons.
Remarks
The actual resolution represented by size depends on the DPI of the main display. To retrieve all actual icon images use the FromFile(String) overload instead, and then you can extract the exact resolution by the IconExtensions.ExtractIcon extension method.
If fileName refers to an icon file use the Icon(String) constructor instead.
The images of an Icon can be extracted by the IconExtensions.ExtractBitmaps methods.
