How to convert ICO to JPG

JPG has no transparency - transparent pixels in the .ico are replaced with a solid color (usually white) on export.
ICO is a multi-size container; most programs export the largest embedded image (often 256×256) by default.
Icon images are small by design; a 256×256 .jpg looks fine as a thumbnail but will appear blurry if scaled up.

Will transparent areas in my ICO become white or black in the JPG?

Most programs default to white; in GIMP you can set the background color before running Image > Flatten Image.

My ICO has several sizes - which one gets exported?

Most programs pick the largest size automatically; in GIMP each size is a separate layer you can select individually.

Is JPG the best format for extracting an icon image?

PNG is usually better - it preserves transparency and is lossless. Use JPG only if the target system specifically requires it.

Can I use the exported JPG as a favicon?

No - browsers expect .ico or .png for favicons; a .jpg file will not work as a favicon.
