Windows 10: Looking for the Control Panel Shortcut's home?

It lives in your User's folder, under your own Username.....
In AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Windows System (whew!) That wasn't so hard, was it? (Easy for you to say!) - And why did I want to get my hands on it in the first place? Because....I make my own icons, and I'm just conceited enough to think some of mine are nicer than those of Mighty Microsoft's choosing....and I wanted to change the one for Control Panel.


Look at this picture - my icons on the left, not Dirty Harry when he was young and horny and desperate! See that one for Control Panel, second from the top? Well, that's what this was all about.... I wanted my own there. So now it is.
