Synopsis
After creating a simple HTML template for testing purpose, with no favicon.ico, I receive an error in the console "Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)" | "http://127.0.0.1:47021/favicon.ico".
I am trying to figure out where this error is coming from and wondered if someone had any ideas to point me in the right direction.
My HTML page looks like this:
<!doctype html> <html> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <title>Simple JavaScript Tester 01</title> </head> <body> <script src="script.js"></script> </body> </html> When I run this page in Chrome browser and open the console, I see the error message "Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)" | "http://127.0.0.1:47021/favicon.ico". I am running this on a local IIS server. I see this same error message each time I create a new page.
Is it possible this error is coming from another page on my IIS server that I am unaware of?

Resetting the page or clearing the cache on your site or browser may be sufficient to fix the issue. If that doesn't work, try other options. Different graphic formats are used to create a favicon, but some of them are not supported by all browsers and their versions. In this case, it is recommended to use .
A favicon (/ˈfæv. ɪˌkɒn/; short for favorite icon), also known as a shortcut icon, website icon, tab icon, URL icon, or bookmark icon, is a file containing one or more small icons, associated with a particular website or web page.
By adding this to the header section, you will definitely remove the error in the console log:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href=""> From Chrome 2020 this is the solution :
