          gnome-tweaks is a application.

          so look for this file in /usr/share/applications/

          open it with text editor and look for the icon specified.



          enter image description here



          enter image description here



          enter image description here



          if you observe all these images are linked files to gnome-tweak-tool.svg in their respective size folders like 22, 48 etc



          enter image description here



          enter image description here



          So, we have two options




          1. either, directly deleting and pasting the required items in place of org.gnome.tweaks in respected folder with out linking.


          2. or, again linking gnome-tweak.tool.svg files to org. gnome. tweaks.svg in respected folders.
