'Get windows 10 default like icons
I'm currently building a wpf application and am looking for a "generic" looking set of icons like they are used in windows explorer, they can be something between xp and 10 style as long as I have a consistent set of icons in .png format for functions like: new file, open, save, save as, send to, undo, redo, ...
Is there a way to use the windows internal once? Or a way to get some from the internet? I tried the VS2015 Image Library but the icons there have different resolutions and colors. I couldn't even find a pair for undo/redo with the same resolution/color.

Here's the list of dlls that you can get icons from on any windows OS:
%systemroot%\system32\imageres.dll - contains lots of icons, used almost everywhere in Windows 10. It has icons for different types of folders, hardware devices, actions, and so on.
%systemroot%\system32\shell32.dll - also has lots of icons used in various parts of Windows 10. Together with imageres.dll , shell32.dll hosts one of the largest icon collections in Windows 10.
To get the complete list of dlls check out this article.
