HTML tab icons not showing on website when live – CPanel

I have a website that is live at the moment and have added the required code to my HTML files to display the icon on different tabs

I have tried

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="Images/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />

And 

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

I’ve also tried adding the icon file to the directory that my HTML is hosted on and even changed the sizes and used different image types such an .PNG instead, but still no luck.

I’m using NameCheap to host my website and it’s managed through cPanel.

Whenever I view the HTML through localhost it shows the icons on the tabs.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what could be the issue and how I can get my tab icons to display on my website? I’m stumped…

Could it be to do with who I’m hosting my site with?

Thanks

    I contacted Namecheap support and they were helpful but still didn't fix my issue there and then, but I did notice overnight the image had updated and my tab icons were live so I'm assuming it was a server cache issue and I just needed to be patient, thanks for the help everyone!

    You are using the right code.

    The problem is between the cache or the propagation of the icon (this is more rare but can occur sometime).

    You can try to reach your website with different browsers in the incognito mode.
