# Change your Favicon in PrestaShop 1.7

**A favicon is the 16×16 icon beside the website title in your browser tab.** Although many content management systems (CMS) require you install a plugin or [upload the favicon file manually](/support/website/how-to-create-a-favicon-for-your-website/), PrestaShop allows you to do so from your admin dashboard by default. You can use our [free favicon generator tool](/support/tools/favicon-generator/) or an online service such as [favicon-generator.org](https://www.favicon-generator.org/) to create one. Below we cover how to **upload a favicon to PrestaShop 1.7 in your admin dashboard.**

## Change your Favicon

1. **Login PrestaShop.** [![PrestaShop login screen](https://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/images/stories/prestashop/prestashop-17-6-login.png)](https://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/images/stories/prestashop/prestashop-17-6-login.png)
