I recently noticed that in folders with special icons (eg. on the desktop) have a file in them named Icon?
(its a hidden file btw).
I tried opening one up using my text editor (Atom) and it comes up as an empty text file, yet it has a file-size (for the desktop one it was 346KB
).
I understand the purpose of these files, but how do they work and is there any way to make your own?
