Description

First of all my compliments with the new Icon browser, very nice! :-)

I do have one "simple" feature request. Is it possible to also make an option to export an icon to *.ico with all the different sizes so it can be used with an WPF/UWP app?

Research direction

Start by locating the browser's existing icon export or save entry point; the issue does not name a file or test. Use the linked Microsoft icon guidance to define ICO output containing the requested sizes, then verify that the result can be used by WPF and UWP applications.
