Typically, the PNG will be smaller because it only extracts one image layer instead of keeping multiple resolutions. However, if the ICO file used highly compressed lossy formats for its large layers, converting it to a lossless PNG might slightly increase the file size.

Absolutely. Your files are processed securely using encrypted connections and are permanently deleted from our servers immediately after the conversion process completes. We do not store or view your files.
