I am looking for a way to extract an icon from a program and save it to a file, then load from the file and use again, keeping 32bit colors
I have tried using ConvertTo32BitImageList()
saving as file and stream
When ExtractIcon() is used the icon is fine, I can put it on bitbtn's etc and they look good.
But once they have been saved, and reloaded, the icon reverts to 16bit color and no form of manipulation seems to work
Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
