About the Icon Converter

Windows apps and many favicons use the ICO format, which can pack several resolutions into one file. The icon converter turns any image into a multi-size .ico with optional rounded corners and a background, so your icon looks crisp everywhere from a 16px taskbar to a 256px high-DPI display.

Frequently asked questions

What is an ICO file?

A Windows icon file that can hold several image sizes in one file — used for application icons and website favicons.

Which sizes should I include?

16, 32 and 48 px cover browser tabs and the desktop; add 256 px for high-DPI displays.

Can the icon have a transparent background?

Yes. Leave 'Fill background' off to keep transparency — the ICO uses PNG-compressed entries that support alpha.

Are my images uploaded to a server?

No. The ICO is built entirely in your browser; your image never leaves your device.
