The logo path of the context menu items for Bandizip and Bandiview on Windows 11 appears to be incorrect.

Using the following PowerShell script to retrieve the logo path for both applications shows that the specified logo does not exist:


```
Add-Type -AssemblyName "System.Runtime.WindowsRuntime"
$null = [Windows.Management.Deployment.PackageManager, Windows.Management.Deployment, ContentType = WindowsRuntime]

$packageManager = New-Object Windows.Management.Deployment.PackageManager

$filter = "BandizipShellext"
# $filter = "WindowsTerminal"

$packages = $packageManager.FindPackagesForUser("")

foreach ($pkg in $packages) {
    if ($pkg.Id.Name -like "*$filter*") {
        Write-Host "Name: $($pkg.Id.Name)"
        Write-Host "FullName: $($pkg.Id.FullName)"
        Write-Host "InstalledLocation: $($pkg.InstalledLocation.Path)"
        $logoPath =  $pkg.Logo.OriginalString
        Write-Host "Logo Path: $logoPath"
        if (Test-Path $logoPath) {
            Write-Host "Logo file exists."
        } else {
            Write-Host "Logo file NOT found."
        }
    }
}
```

Output:

```
Name: BandizipShellext2
FullName: BandizipShellext2_1.0.0.2_x64__y8jx0atjth7em
InstalledLocation: C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\BandizipShellext2_1.0.0.2_x64__y8jx0atjth7em
Logo Path: C:\Program Files\Bandizip\data\Assets\StoreLogo.png
Logo file NOT found.
```

Furthermore, even though there are logo files located in the installed directory:

C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\BandizipShellext2_1.0.0.2_x64__y8jx0atjth7em\Assets

All the logo images are blank white images and appear to be invalid.

Hello, this is Bandisoft.

We assumed that logo images would not be necessary, so we placed only empty images at that path. If you could let us know in which situations the logos are needed, it would be very helpful for improving the software.

Thank you very much for your feedback on the products.

Package.Logo Property (Windows.ApplicationModel) - Windows apps | Microsoft Learn

Windows API will parse the icon file in BandizipShellext2_y8jx0atjth7em.xml

From the user's perspective, there should be no problem, but some third-party apps, such as those that display system installed software information, will not be able to display the bandizip icon correctly.

On Windows, third-party software usually uses the Package.Logo API to read the installed software icon.

This software is not optimized for bandizip, etc., so a blank icon will be displayed

bandizip's icon resources do not seem to use a transparent background

It just looks like the style is not uniform, if it is intentional, then there is no problem
