Processing: This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your input and any file you open stay on your device — nothing is uploaded to a server.

About this tool
Conversion happens in the page: the ICO file is decoded by your browser, redrawn, and re-encoded as PNG. Nothing is uploaded, so there is no queue, no size limit imposed by a server, and no copy of your image on someone else's machine.
An ICO can hold several sizes; the browser picks the largest it decodes. To go the other way, use the favicon generator.
The image's pixel dimensions are unchanged — only the format and file size differ. To change the size as well, use the image resizer afterwards.
Common uses
- Sending an image to software that will not accept ICO.
- Reducing the file size of a ICO image.
- Standardising a set of images on one format.
Frequently asked questions
- Is my ICO file uploaded?
- No. It is decoded and re-encoded by your browser on your device, which is why there is no wait and no size cap.
- Does converting ICO to PNG lose quality?
- The conversion itself is lossless — PNG stores every pixel exactly. Any loss already baked into the source stays there.
- Are the dimensions changed?
- No. The image keeps its pixel dimensions; only the encoding changes. Use the image resizer to change dimensions.
