  2. How to change File type on Windows 10 - File Extension Change

    Windows 10 my jpegs. open with paint. Is that normal? It was a photo and opened in paint. I want to see the page of all the file extensions to see what they are opening. Somehow my friend has changed her DIP program to opening with pngs and thy won't open at all. she needs to change them back to what they were. I have looked online anf found nothing that helps...too complicated. Could I please get a step by step 1, 2, 3 etc list to help her change her program extension to the right one. Please and thank you.

  3. unable to change file name in "photos".

    Hi Steve,

    Let us know the website you are referring to.

    I suggest you to change file type/ extensions by right clicking on the file, click
    Rename, edit the name and extensions as you wish and check if it helps.

    To know more about which type of photo file is accepted, try to contact the website support team.

    Hope it helps. Reply to the post with an updated status of changing the photos file types for further assistance.

    Thank you.

    File Extension change

    In file explorer, click on the view tab and tick the box 'File name Extensions'

    you can then change the extension of your files.

    Note . although this works for .m4a to .m4r this is not a method for changing file formats.
