This issue has been going on for years. Examples are:

The Joomla community refuses to do the simplest thing. Just leave out the Joomla favicons in an update.
Then the old favicons will remain active during an update, regardless of whether they are Joomla favicons or your own or company favicons.
The reasons for this refusal are of course obvious.
A dirty solution was always to copy your template and give it your own name and activate it. The big disadvantage of this is that updates in the template will pass you by.
That can have serious consequences. Not a nice solution.
But luckily now there is a simple solution![😊]()
: Child templates.
It works simply.
Go to systems in the backend, your template and press the child templates button. Go to that child template with filezilla, see a folder there: /domains/yoursite/public_html/media/templates/site/cassiopeia_child/images
place your own favicon in this folder. Done.
Now go in the backend to systems, templatestyles. Open menus and activate all menus in one click.
That's it.
Success.
