This day and age, this is what I would do.
DeepSeek prompt:
---
Compiler: MSYS2 MinGW-w64 ucrt64 GCC C
source: C:\CCode\EnableVisualStyles\App.c (doesn't exist)
write a simple test app with some controls in it
use python to make icons of a bird
put the icons and visual style manifest in the resource file
give me the command line to compile it
---
Done deal with beautiful high-res icon with rounded corners. Just tell it what kind of icon you want.
If you use AI, you should have python installed. That's what it uses to build everything.
