GraphicBurger is a great place if you want to download perfect, very high quality pixel icons. It is run by a Romanian designer (Raul Taciu) and all the icons and other design resources this designer provides can be used for free by anyone. However, you must know that the icons are available in .png, .svg, .eps and Sketch formats, so you'll need to convert them to .ico file formats if you want to use them in Windows 10.
The websites we've covered above are good sources for finding great icons. In just a few minutes you will surely find some beautiful icon sets that will help you 'skin-change' the look and feel of your Windows desktop.
