Final answer:

To get a favicon from a website in Chrome, view the site's source code, search for 'favicon.ico' to find the favicon's URL, and then save the image by right-clicking on it in the browser.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get a favicon from a website using Chrome, you can access the site's source code and find the link to the favicon. Here are the steps:

  • Navigate to the website you're interested in.
  • Right-click on the page and select 'View page source' or press Ctrl+U on your keyboard.
  • Once the page source is open, press Ctrl+F to open the find function and type in 'favicon.ico' to locate the icon's URL.
  • When you've found the link, it will typically look something like '<link rel="shortcut icon" href="URL_TO_FAVICON">'. Copy the URL inside the href attribute.
  • Paste the URL into your browser's address bar to view the favicon.
  • Right click on the favicon image and select 'Save image as...' to download it to your computer.

Note that some sites might use different kinds of icons such as a PNG or SVG instead of the traditional ICO format, or they could be located in different locations or have different filenames.
