Files with ICO extension store image files for icons for applications, documents, or folders in Windows operating system. Does an ICO file store a single scalable icon image? Older versions of Windows used ICO files that contained a single 48x48 pixel icon image each.
Files with the .DLL extension contain files of dynamically linked libraries, co-shared within Microsoft Windows system, and also OS/2. Additional information: All data can be loaded into memory and utilised by several programs simultaneously.
After converting the file to the new format, you will be able to use other programs to support it. Keep in mind, however, that the ICO file after converting to DLL may differ slightly from the original. The most important information should be kept, but if you want the file after conversion from ICO to DLL to be the same, you have to do this carefully and choose the proper application from the list below.
There is no guarantee, of course, that the conversion will come up to all your expectations, but it will certainly help you. If, after all, the effect of converting ICO to DLL does not meet your expectations, you can simply try to find on the Internet a different version of your file in ICO format, properly converted to a DLL file by someone else. If this fails, use the information provided in the further part of the website.
If after converting the file ICO the desired result was not achieved, you can try to change the format of ICO file to other than DLL. On our website you will find more information on the following conversion options
Unfortunately, if after performing the two previously described steps (trying to find your ICO file converted by someone else, and the attempt to convert it to DLL on your own) you still have a problem with your file, then there are only a few solutions left. You can once again try to find and install an application that can open the ICO file in its original format (without conversion to DLL file). Such a solution will be difficult to implement, but it certainly will give the best result.
