I have placed the link below in the portion of the website.

I placed ShortcutIcon.png" in the Server.MapPath("~/"). I still do not get the Icon in the Bookmarks or Favorites png. Is there any other dynamic way to get this done?

What I have tried:

Added to Default.aspx . Put the png photo in root directory still no Icon.

Try using an .ico file. You also need a tag in your HTML:

HTML

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/path/favicon.ico">

Read this for more info:
html - "/favicon.ico" vs <link rel="shortcut icon" /> - Stack Overflow[^]
