    ICO, a format reserved for Windows icons

    The ICO format is used almost exclusively for Windows application icons and website favicons. It can contain several sizes of the same icon (16x16, 32x32, 48x48...) stacked in a single file — a use case few other formats handle.

    Extract an image you can actually edit or reuse

    An ICO doesn’t open natively in most consumer editing software. Converting it to PNG gives you a plain image, editable in any editor, with its transparency preserved.

    Which icon size is used if the file has several?

    If the ICO file bundles several resolutions, the conversion generally uses the largest available size to produce the PNG, to preserve as much detail as possible.
