How to save an icon image to a location in c#?

Question

I am including an icon image in my Resources folder and retrieving it via

System.Drawing.Icon icon1= CreateDesktopShortCut.Properties.Resources.Treetog_I_Documents;

However After retrieving the icon I want to store the icon to a path in Hard Drive. Any idea how to do it?

You can use the icon's Save() method and a FileStream:

icon1.Save(new FileStream("c:\\myicon.ico", FileMode.Create));
