Efiresoft Image to Icon Converter

Efiresoft Image to Icon Converter is a simple-to-use Windows application with a name that basically sums up its purpose: it can turn common images into icons, thus allowing you to personalize shortcuts to programs, files and folders.

The utility offers support for BMP, JPG, PNG, GIF and ICO files. Its standard features are intuitive enough to be learned with ease by novices.

The setup procedure is rapid and does not require special attention from the user. Its interface is not particularly attractive but fairly simple to work with.

Images can be added to the main frame for conversion using the drag-and-drop function. Batch processing is not supported, meaning that you cannot work with multiple pictures at once to decrease overall task duration.

In matter of output icon settings, you can select the size (original, preset value or custom) and color (solid or transparent). Clicking a button pops up a file browser that you can use to point out the saving directory and file name.

Conversion jobs are carried out immediately, while CPU and RAM usage is minimal. We have not come across any kind of issues throughout our evaluation, since the tool did not hang, crash or pop up error dialogs.

In a nutshell, Efiresoft Image to Icon Converter is not rich in features, but it offers a simple way to create icon files with a customized size and color, and it can be handled by anyone.
