Favicon.ico not changing when downloading

I'm brand new to html and CSS. I decided to use an icon as my favicon, so I used a generator to change my .png to a .ico. I downloaded it, used it, was great. Now I want to change it, but I'm running into an issue. What I want as my favicon.ico

Very hard to see, but it is a circle with a logo in it.

When I move it to my website folder, it changes to THIS: The logo it changes too

It changes when I move it. Granted these are .png, but I use the .ico of both those pictures. Tried using a different .ico converter, didn't work. Tried perm deleting the first .ico, didn't work. If anyone has any ideas, thanks.

The most likely is that it is not changing due browser caching. Clear your browser cache or when you specify the url add a parameter you can change when you want a new version downloaded.

href=”favicon.ico?v=1”
