Favicon won't upload
I generated my favicon in .ico file format. I used Favic-oMatic. From General options I try to browse and am taken to media upload. It fails and the message is: "favicon.ico The server cannot process the image. This can happen if the server is busy or does not have enough resources to complete the task. Uploading a smaller image may help. Suggested maximum size is 2560 pixels."
My favicon file is only 5.3 kb
I also tried uploading a 32x32 pixel version in .png format. That uploads fine, but not sure it will work since the instructions say to use .ico
Help please - thanks

Hi,
Most modern browsers handle PNGs favicons, but some might have problems with displaying it.
For problems with the ICO extension, please, install this plugin:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-real-mime-check/
After installing and activating it, check if the problem with ICO persists.
Thanks
thank you, I guess I'll just see if the PNG file works and if not try the plugin.
I've had a problem for months too and I've tried everything, including, I just installed this plugin that you recommend and nothing has been resolved, simply the Favicon doesn't load in my Chrome browser tab, that's because it's updated, strangely it just loads in Firefox which is another browser I have.
Please help me to resolve this as it is very difficult to understand the reason for this error.
