ICO (Icon) is a Microsoft image format designed specifically for computer icons and website favicons. Unlike regular image formats, an ICO file is a container that can hold multiple image sizes and color depths within a single file — from tiny 16x16 pixel taskbar icons to high-resolution 256x256 pixel desktop icons.
- Website Favicons: The small icon that appears in browser tabs, bookmarks, and search results. Usually stored as favicon.ico.
- Desktop Icons: Windows application icons, shortcut icons, and system icons are stored in ICO format.
- Multi-Resolution Container: A single ICO file can contain 16x16, 24x24, 32x32, 48x48, 64x64, and 256x256 versions of the same icon.
💡 Why Convert? ICO files cannot be opened by most image editors, design tools, or inserted into documents. Converting ICO to PNG gives you a standard image format that works everywhere — Photoshop, Canva, Word, PowerPoint, and all design applications.
