I have new icons for the VS Code file explorer, the material icon theme as seen here.

However, the icons of files in my windows explorer are different, and some file types are not supported. It would be nice to have the new icons of VS Code file explorer in my windows explorer as well. Like it is currently, these icons could simply be overlayed on the existing document icon:

Here's a rough mockup of what the file icon might look like with the material icon theme in use:

For any other icon theme, the icons in the middle of the "document" white icon would simply be replaced with the new ones.

Unfortunately this is not possible as these icons need to be part of the build process to be compiled.
