# v4.4.3 to v4.4.5 migration guide

The Strapi v4.4.3 to v4.4.5 migration guide upgrades v4.4.3 to v4.4.5. The migration changes the name of the favicon from favicon.ico to favicon.png.

✋ CAUTION

This migration guide skips v4.4.4, which introduced a problem in koa/cors due to a missing dependency update.

  2. Save the edited package.json file.

  3. Replace the existing favicon.ico with favicon.png (opens new window):

  4. Run either yarn or npm install to install the new version.

💡 TIP

If the operation doesn't work, try removing your yarn.lock or package-lock.json. If that doesn't help, remove the node_modules folder as well and try again.
