ICO to PNG Conversion

ICO is a file format specifically designed for computer icons in Microsoft Windows. An ICO file can contain multiple images at different sizes and color depths, allowing the icon to scale appropriately across the interface.

PNG files use lossless compression. This means you can edit and save a PNG as many times as you want without losing any quality. PNGs also support transparency, allowing parts of your image to be see-through. This makes PNG ideal for logos, graphics, and any image that needs to be layered over other content.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should you convert ICO to PNG?

ICO (Icon) files are Windows-specific containers designed to embed multiple image resolutions (16×16, 32×32, 48×48, 256×256) in one file for icon display. While perfect for favicons and Windows application icons, ICO format is impractical for general image editing - most photo editors can't properly edit multi-resolution ICO files, only viewing one embedded size at a time. Web use beyond favicons is limited. Converting ICO to PNG extracts a single resolution as a standard, universally-editable image. PNG supports transparency like ICO, works in ALL image editors (Photoshop, GIMP, Paint.NET), and is perfect for repurposing icon artwork in presentations, websites (as standard images), or any context beyond icon-specific use. Essential when you need to edit icon artwork, incorporate icon graphics into other designs, or use icon imagery in standard image workflows. Choose which embedded ICO size to extract based on your needs - typically the largest (256×256) for maximum quality.
