Is there a way to convert an image to ICO format, if the resolution is bigger than 256×256?
I found several programs but none of them was able to convert larger images. The size which I need is 1024×1024.

Since the width and height is stored as a single byte each in the ICO image format, it cannot represent images larger than 256×256.
You need to first resize your image.
