Where are Windows 10 folder icons located?

Where I can find the folder icons for Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures and Videos? They are not inside shell32.dll.

The icons you ask about are within the C:\Windows\System32\imageres.dll file.

  The C:\Windows\System32\shell32.dll and C:\Windows\System32\imageres.dll files contain most of Windows default icons.

Those icons are NOT present inside shell32.dll. Desktop, Pictures, Downloads, etc. and many more icons are inside imageres.dll which is C:\Windows\System32\imageres.dll
