How to Change Shortcut Icons in Windows Mobile
Window Mobile is the operating system (OS) produced by Microsoft based on the legacy Windows CE OS. The Windows Mobile OS is used on PDAs and other smartphones worldwide.

If you own a device using the Windows Mobile OS, you may have the need arise to create new shortcut icons.
