Converting ICO to PNG: what to know
ICO is converted to PNG to get the picture out of a Windows icon or a website favicon and edit it in an ordinary editor.
An ICO file often holds several sizes. By default the first image in the file is saved, and every size can be saved as a separate PNG with "Frames and pages" → "All as separate files (ZIP)". Transparency is kept.
ICO or PNG: which to choose?
ICO (Windows Icon)
ICO is the icon format for Windows and website favicons; one file can contain several sizes.
Best for favicons and Windows application icons.
PNG (Portable Network Graphics)
PNG stores images without quality loss and supports transparency, but photos in PNG are large.
Best for screenshots, logos, diagrams and any images with transparency or sharp text.
What happens when converting ICO to PNG
PNG stores a single image, so the first frame or page of ICO is converted by default. To get every frame, choose "All as separate files (ZIP)" in the "Frames and pages" setting.
EXIF metadata, including GPS location, is not copied, and the photo orientation is applied to the pixels.
ICO files up to 256 MB are supported; the actual limit also depends on the free memory of your device.
