Does it still report that th icon can't be found?  If so, then you are still
likely specifying the wrong ID to begin with.  Or it might be that you are
trying to retreive an icon that does not have a version available for the
current display resolution.

As I mentioned earlier, if you use that flag, then you have to set the sizes
to 0 so that the OS can pick them.

x48 icon.

If you want to load a specific-sized icon then DO NOT specify the
LR_DEFAULTSIZE flag.
