- Description
- The ICL (Windows Icon Library File) is a type of binary file used by Windows to store a collection of icons. It contains a series of icons in different sizes and styles, which can be used as application icons or other elements in a graphical user interface.
- An ICO file is an image format used to store icons for Windows programs, files, and folders. It contains two bitmaps: 1) the AND bitmap - the image mask (which determines what part of the icon is transparent) and 2) the XOR bitmap - contains the icon which is mapped onto the image mask. ICO files can be modified to create custom icons.
