In this cross-platform world, sometimes you just really need an icon from a .exe binary. Thanks to the StackOverflow community, here is the definitive method to do that. Install icoutils.

dnf install icoutils
# OR
sudo apt-get install icoutils

Use resource 14 (icon groups) to extract the icons.

wrestool -x -t 14 mybinary.exe -o outputdir/
