Why convert ICO to BMP?

BMP conversion is useful when you need to edit a favicon in software that doesn't support ICO format, or when working with legacy applications that require bitmap images.

Will the BMP file be larger than the ICO?

Usually yes, since BMP is an uncompressed format. A 4KB ICO favicon might become 10KB or more as BMP depending on the image dimensions.

Does this preserve transparency?

Standard BMP format has limited transparency support. If your ICO has transparency, consider converting to PNG instead to preserve the alpha channel.

Which size is extracted from multi-size ICO files?

The conversion extracts the largest available size from the ICO file. Multi-size ICO files contain multiple resolutions, and we use the highest quality version.

Is the ICO to BMP conversion free?

Yes, completely free with no hidden costs, watermarks, or usage limits. Convert as many favicon files as you need without registration.

Are my ICO files secure during conversion?

Absolutely. All processing happens locally in your browser. Your ICO files never leave your device or get uploaded to any server.
