What icon do you mean the arrow on all the shortcuts ?

If so then you can use a GPO to change the value of that icon via the registry : SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Icons

If you want a specific shortcut that points to an application then maybe concider to create the shortcut with the proper properties eg path and icon and have it deploy via GPO to your users.

Hope it helps,
