    Icon set comes in iPack


    So I recently downloaded an icon theme, but it comes in an iPack installer. I don't want any more stuff on my computer, and I don't even think it's compatible with my version of Windows 10. Any help?

    I'm confused. You don't want any more stuff on your computer... but downloaded more stuff to your computer?

    Why not unpack it, keep what you want and ditch the rest... or am I missing something?

    As for compatibility... you don't mention the icon theme nor where you got it from... so it's difficult to answer.

    I meant I don't want any apps I won't use

    OK... so, if the icons you want are in an app that you don't want... how do you suppose you're going to resolve that?

    I don't know, that's why I'm asking this forum.

    I tried to extract from the installer but cannot figure out how to unpack the Resource.iPack file. Maybe someone else knows how to?

    I guess that you could screenshot and crop the visible icons in the images on that site and create your own.

    Create icon from image:

    Download Drop Icons - MajorGeeks

    Then create icon in all available sizes:

    I'll do some research on the file format. It's probably in a compression method that 7-zip doesn't recognize.

    I just did some research and figured it out. The iPack file itself is not a compressed archive. It contains the necessary files and information required for the icon customization software to apply the new icons, such as icon files, configuration data, and metadata. The file format and structure of an iPack file may be specific to the software used to create it. You can't apply it without installing the icon customization software, which is in the installer.

    There might be a way to unpack it but I cannot find out how. I created one test icon from an image on your linked site:



    It could use some work but you get the idea.
