This does not convert the png into an ico, it just converts the png into an png with the .ico file extension - but that's just a filename, the image itself ist still a png.
You should use the png2ico command to convert from png to ico like before. - (Or a proper way of doing it using other tools like magick, but I'm not sure if magick is able to handle the ico file format.)

png2ico doesn't support the large size it seems:
...\AppData\Local\Temp\icon.png: Width must be multiple of 8 and <256. Height must be <256.
I could first resize it using magick and send it to png2ico but since I've found a way to create a proper ico file with ImageMagick, it makes more sense to do it all in one line - try out my modified version
My command makes an icon that contains all the sizes required here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/uxguide/vis-icons#size-requirements. But I can change it to just 256x256 if that's all Windows needs nowadays.

In Readme.md png2ico is mentioned as build dependency. If that's no lognger the case that could also be changed in the Readme.
Closes #8
Tested locally, hope it is okay.
