Format Details
MSP
MSP is the proprietary bitmap image format used by Microsoft Paint in the early Windows 1.x and 2.x era. It stores only monochrome (black and white) images in a simple uncompressed binary format without any metadata or color information. MSP is a historical format not supported by modern applications, but files can be converted to preserve content from very old PC collections.
ICO
ICO is the Windows icon file format used to display icons for applications, files, folders, and shortcuts in the operating system. It can contain multiple image sizes and color depths within a single file, ensuring icons look sharp at different display scales and DPI settings. ICO files are also used as website favicons — the small icon displayed in browser tabs, bookmarks, and address bars.
