While 8.2 seems to work fine for what I’m doing I’m having a problem with Web Icons. I go to Settings, Web Icons and place my icons into Classic Favicon and RW freezes. To test this problem I opened up a new project and the same thing happened. The theme I’m using is Future. Don’t know if it is just me or not. ---

I’ve just done the same thing with 8.2.1, the same theme and it works fine. Maybe something else is causing a conflict? What kind of image are you adding? ---

It seems as if the png format is the problem. If I generate the image as an ico it works fine. Curious to see what if the png is a problem for you @robbeattie ---

I’m cheating I’m afraid. Using an old Doobox app called Rapid Icons. Think it does all the conversions for me! ---

Doobox has another icon creator called Favicon Pro, and it’s free. [https://www.doobox.co.uk/apps/app\_demos/faviconpro.html](https://www.doobox.co.uk/apps/app_demos/faviconpro.html) ---
