DESKLINK.DAT is not created if missing #3

Closed jacobpalm closed 6 years ago

If DESKLINK.DAT is missing, it should be created automatically with the default icons for built-in apps, since there is no way to add these from within the UI.

Possible solution:

Get the data of the current standard icons in DESKLINK.DAT.
Make a SUB that resets the icon arrays, then adds the standard elements to the array. At the end of the SUB, call the SaveLink SUB. Make sure DESKLINK.DAT will be deleted - if this is not already in SaveLink, do it in the new SUB before SaveLink is called.
The LoadLink SUB already checks for errors. Simply call the new SUB when errors are found.
