Hey everyone, I just exported 223 new Vista icons from the Beta 1 Release!

I have put them into 2 ZIP Packages.

The first package contains new XP Style icons to what I *THINK* to be new icons for Vista. I say check them all, even if they are not new to Vista, you may have not seen them before!

The second package contains new Vista Style icons, this package is very neat! There is a folder in there called "SHELL32", these icons are exported from the SHELL32.DLL File and put in a seperate folder as they are the main icons, and what most of you are probably looking for. I am an icon freak though so I exported all I could find from every file in the System32 folder!

I reccomend you download both and view all of them! There is some really neat ones in there!

ZIP Package #1: (466KB)

ZIP Package #2: (10.1MB)

IconPackager Pack

I've done a quick package which is located here:

http://www.en-force.net/downloads/VistaPack.zip

Feel free to edit em' all up and replace ones I may have missed, I did it quite quickly as I have to get ready for the nite out'

Tomorrow I'll go through other files and such where some icons might be if anyone doesn't do it by then.

Ksaads' I.P. Pack based on the ripped icons:

I personally reccomend' Ksaads' release, it seems more complete than mine!

Enjoy!

The downloads should be fast too, I put it on my quickest serv. (I DLed/ at 600KB/s on 5Mpbs)

-----------------

If there is any display problems, let me know! I've tested many of them and exported them all the same, so all resolutions/colours should work. (256x256* > 16x16) (2bit colour* > WinXP Colour)

* If applicable.

Is there a new Regedit.exe icon? That would be nice to have.

Is there a reason why MS never updates all of their icons?? I mean at least update some of the ancient ones.? These new ones are decent but I just don't feel like it's enough for such a huge release like Vista.

EDIT: Thanks for the upload though.

The Start menu, too, has changed little since 5048 and features the same odd mix of Windows Vista and XP icons (Figure); Windows Client Group Director Neil Charney told me recently not to fear, that all of the icons throughout Vista would be upgraded to be big, high-resolution, and beautiful.

I hope they are going to change old win95 icons.

    • I've been on Deezer for over a decade, but glad that Tidal joined them in fighting AI slop. Can't stand such takes as Spotify's: "Spotify's CEO recently pushed back against listeners who call AI music "slop," urging people to stop using the term and instead embrace the creative potential of AI music."

    • Microsoft Teams gets smarter at spotting sneaky meeting bots by Usama Jawad Microsoft Teams is set to receive a couple of new features soon, including a dedicated Recap app and a rather controversial location tracking functionality. The Redmond tech giant has also explained how it has made online communication and collaboration a lot more performant this year. Now, the company has detailed more secure bot admission mechanisms, as first reported by us in March 2026, and now available in Teams. As the use of AI has expanded across enterprise environments, Microsoft has begun allowing users to integrate bots into their meetings for various tasks, such as note-taking. While this has a tangible productivity benefit for users, Microsoft has highlighted how misconfiguration has allowed bots to join meetings that they shouldn't. This has created security and privacy risks, which Microsoft is now combating using a new Teams admin policy that allows organizers to control how external bots access meetings. Admins can leverage a policy called Manage external bots and their access to meetings. The default configuration is "When detected, require approval before joining", which places detected bots in a lobby before they are explicitly admitted into the meeting. The other option disables the experience. Microsoft has also requested admins to only allow organizers and co-organizers to manage access to a meeting, so that other people don't randomly allow bots into meetings. Teams will now be able to leverage infrastructure signals to intelligently detect and distinguish between bots and humans. Microsoft will soon also trial a registration experience for independent software vendors (ISVs) to build a system that registers a bot with Microsoft, so it is marked as a "known" bot. Teams will also categorize bots as trusted and suspected threats so that organizers can quickly identify which bots they want to allow into a meeting. Additional safeguards to block accidental admission of a bot into a meeting include: No one-click Admit option for identified bots Confirmation prompts when admitting participants that include bots Warnings when organizers choose Admit all, and bots are included Microsoft has begun rolling out this experience, and it will be retiring the current CAPTCHA verification implementation. In the future, the company plans to roll out new capabilities like allow-lists, organization-wide policies, admin reports, audit logs, and more granular controls.
    • With the current hardware prices Microsoft should lift the restriction. Then if you have the correct TPM then allow you to use X feature, if you don't have the correct TPM then don't but still actually let you run windows. 11. With a disclaimer during install that X features would be unavailable.
