| My windows XP has trying to save all files that are jpg files as jpe files now.
What happens is, when I click on save... the windows save box comes up and shows the file name as blahblah_picture.jpe ...if I manually change the jpe showing to jpg, then the file saves as a jpg file, but what would have suddenly made my XP start suggesting the jpe file extensions?
It never did this before, previously it saved jpg files with .jpg at the end.
Anyone know what would cause it to suddenly start doing this (and more importantly, which area I can go to on my 'puter to reset the defaults back to the way it was?) Thanks.

| Was it you Questor who posted this question before we switched servers here? I'm curious about this one too but, I can't seem to find much info on the jpe extension other than it's still a jpeg but it's a mime extension. Is this causing you problems or does it just bug you? Just wondering. Anyhow, here's a registry edit that may solve your problem. Run regedit and navigate:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\ContentType\image/jpeg
If the value of the "Extension" key is "jpe" double click it and change it to "jpg".
Hope this helps. |

 Yep, it was me who posted the question over on the old board before the change. Thanks, I'll look at this suggestion on my 'puter.

| Could you think of any reason why some of my JPG files open with the default program (ImageEye) while others insist on opening in Windows Media Player?
