Why turn an AVIF into an ICO?

AVIF is one of the smallest image formats on the web, but Windows cannot use it for program, folder or shortcut icons.

Many sites now serve pictures as AVIF, so a saved logo or sticker often lands on your disk in this format.

An ICO holds the same picture at several sizes, so it stays sharp from the taskbar to the Start menu.

Which icon sizes do you need?

Size	Where it shows up	Preset
16 x 16	Browser tabs, Explorer details view, title bars	All presets
32 x 32	Desktop at 100%, taskbar, bookmarks	All presets
48 x 48	Explorer medium icons, Windows site tiles	All presets
20, 24, 40	Windows at 125% and 150% display scaling	Windows app
64 / 128	Large icons and high-DPI screens	Recommended
256 x 256	Extra large icons, Windows 10 and 11 Start	Recommended, Windows app

Not sure? Keep Recommended - it covers every place Windows and browsers look. The Icons Analyzer lists every size inside an existing ICO.

What about HDR, 10-bit and animated AVIF?

10 and 12-bit AVIF - your browser maps them to 8 bits per channel, which is all an icon can hold.
HDR photos - colours are toned for normal screens, so very bright areas can look a little flatter.
Transparent AVIF - the see-through background is kept in every icon size.
Animated AVIF - every frame shows up under the preview, so you can pick the one you like.

The AVIF is decoded by your browser. Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari 16.4 or newer all can - on an older browser you get a short note telling you what to do.

Tips for great icons

Start big. 256 x 256 px or larger gives the sharpest large icon. Small source? Try the Image Upscaler first.
Not square? Pick Crop to square to fill the icon, or keep Fit inside for transparent bars.
Just need a normal picture? AVIF to PNG keeps transparency and opens everywhere.
Need a different size later? The Icon Resizer adds or removes sizes in an existing ICO.

Frequently Asked Questions

Drop your AVIF into the box, keep the Recommended sizes or pick a preset, and press Make my ICO.

Yes. Pick the Favicon preset (16, 32 and 48 px) and upload favicon.ico to the root of your site. The Favicon Generator also makes the PNG sizes for phones.

Yes. Layers below 256 px are 32-bit bitmaps with a mask and the 256 px layer is a 32-bit PNG - the layout Windows Explorer, Photos and Visual Studio expect.
