Use Inkscape with the -export-png command and call it in a loop over all resolutions. Convert the PNGs to a single file icon with the convert option of magick.Export the PNGs with inkscape CLI using the parameter -export-png.Create a SVG file and save it or use an existing one (double check that width and height are the same).Download and Install the tools on your Windows system.My solution is based on the post on stackexchange - How to convert a square SVG to all-size ICO?. I used inkscape to create the SVG and export the PNG files with multiple resolutions, then I used magick to convert and merge the PNG files to one single ico file. A icon normally can handle multiple resolutions in one single file. There are many online tools doing that, but I was not able to found any which can handle multiple resolutions in one ico-file. So it is necessary to convert the SVG to an icon. But still many applications need an icon *.ico. I am just using a PNG because I need transparency in the final SVG.SVG is often the way to create an image, that format is scalable and easy to maintain. If I can convert a JPG or JPEG or BMP or whatever to a transparent SVG I am fine with that too. (If it actually is, though, I can tell you better ways of doing this.) There is pretty much no benefit to it and I highly doubt this is really what you want to do. It just didn't allow me to do it without user intervention via a GUI popup, which is the issue I am trying to solve. Thats not how it worked when I ran the command.
svg, all you're doing is putting some unnecessary wrapper XML-code around your original image file (which also needlessly increases the file size because of base64 encoding), or just creating a mostly empty file with just a link pointing to your original file. I am just using PNG because I want transparency. Also, I am able to use JPEG as long as there is a way to have it be transparent in the final SVG image. These two types of images are not interchangeable and actually converting raster images to vectors is lossy and non-trivial.
PNGs are raster graphics, SVGs are vector graphics.
