  3. Locate the store view that you want to edit, and click the Edit link in the Action column.
  4. In the Edit Store View page, click the HTML Head tab.
  5. In the Favicon field, click the Choose File button and select the favicon image file that you want to use.
  6. Click the Save Config button to save your changes.


Your new favicon should now be displayed in the browser tab for your store.


Note: The favicon file should be a square image with dimensions of 16x16 pixels, 32x32 pixels, or 48x48 pixels, and should be in the .ico or .png format.

To change the favicon in Magento 2, you can follow these steps:

  1. Prepare your new favicon: Create a small image file (preferably in .ico format) that will serve as your favicon. Make sure the dimensions of the image are square and no larger than 32x32 pixels.
  2. Upload the favicon to your Magento 2 installation: Connect to your server using an FTP client or access the server file system. Navigate to the root directory of your Magento 2 installation. Create a new folder named "pub" if it doesn't exist. Inside the "pub" folder, create another folder named "static" if it doesn't exist. Inside the "static" folder, create one more folder called "frontend" if it doesn't exist. Inside the "frontend" folder, locate the theme you are using. It may be named after your theme or the parent theme if you are using a child theme. Within your theme folder, navigate to "Magento_Theme" folder, and if it doesn't exist, create it. Inside the "Magento_Theme" folder, create a new folder called "web" if it doesn't exist. Finally, upload your favicon image file to this "web" folder.
  3. Clear the cache: Access the Magento admin panel. Go to "System" > "Cache Management". Click on "Flush Magento Cache" and "Flush Cache Storage" buttons to clear the cache.
  4. Refresh your website cache: Within the Magento admin panel, go to "System" > "Cache Management". Select all cache types and choose "Refresh" from the "Actions" dropdown. Click on the "Submit" button.


Once these steps are completed, your new favicon should be visible on your Magento 2 website.
