Windows 10: Error message anytime I try to open an image file on my computer. jpg, jpeg, png

This just started happening today. An error message appears any time I try to open an image on my computer. This started with four images from a work folder that were copied over in the past, but now every image in any folder is unable to be opened with the same error message. Error: "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item."

Can't open image files, default viewer also doesn't work.

Hello,

File corruption is one of the possible reasons why you're having issue opening image files. For us to identify and isolate this issue better, we need to gather more information. Kindly answer the following questions:

• Where are those images located?
• Any error messages, if there's any?
• Which program are you using to open those images?
• What is the file format of the images?

We would suggest using Windows Photo Viewer to open this file and check if it helps. We would also suggest making Windows Photo Viewer as the default program to open pictures and check.

We'll be waiting for your response.

 

PowerPoint file crashes PowerPoint upon opening

since this happens in some of the computers only, suggest that you open the file on working computer and copy everything and paste to a new powerpoint file.
most of the time it works to me. *Smile
