A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application.

For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension ICO, while before this step we had the ICON file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new ICO file, or not.
