ICO Viewer

Software supporting ICO files

If our ICO Viewer Online did not help you, you have a few more options. One of them is to use software that works with the ICO file. Below are some examples of verified applications. By choosing the option to install dedicated software, you will also be able to e.g. edit the ICO file and sometimes even convert the ICO file.

What are the pros and cons of such a solution?

First of all, you need to know that you need to install specific software that supports ICO files on your computer. In this case, it is not possible to view the ICO file online. Here you will need more time to use this solution, but you will also have more options. You can find some examples of dedicated software below, and the full list is here ICO File Opener

Other possibilities to view the contents of the ICO file

If you still cannot see the contents of the ICO file, but also don't see the need to install dedicated software, then there are other solutions. A large proportion of the data formats are simply archives or plain text files. If this is the case, you can try to preview the contents of ICO file with "Notepad". This solution does not guarantee that the problem will be solved, but it will often allow you to view the data in the ICO file to some extent.

As in the case of Notepad, you can also use the data archiving program. Open Winrar or Winzip and try to unpack your file. If our theory proves to be correct, you should see the tree of files contained in the archive. If you don't know what type of ICO file is, learn more about ICO file extension.
