Find the Windows 11 icon by checking the system tray or the Start menu.
I addressed my own inquiry and will provide guidance for anyone wanting to follow suit. Be aware, handling critical Windows files and folders is risky—please don’t risk damaging your system. My initial step was downloading the icon extractor from the provided link. After running it, I directed it to scan C:\Windows\System32 with subfolders selected. While I managed to locate the icons, the process took some time. Once complete, you should be able to find and save the icons in a more organized way. If you're using Photoshop, consider installing the ICO Format plugin from the link shared. After editing, create a consistent set of icons—ideally one size per icon—and save them as .png files. For final assembly, use the online editor at https://redketchup.io/icon-editor to merge PNGs into a single .ico file, then download and place it wherever you prefer. After adjusting your icons, you can apply similar changes in your proportions menu.
There exists a 64-bit release. It might have a solid argument with C:\Windows\SysWoW64, though searching was tough. System32 kept appearing, so I chose that path and located what I needed.
