    change .jpg files to .jpeg files

  3. change .jpg files to .jpeg files

    A .jpg and .jpeg are the same file format. The only reason there are two different suffixes is because when they first came out some programs producing these files used the .jpg and others used .jpeg.

    Paint uses the .jpg when it saves a JPEG file.

    You can rename them to .jpeg if you like.

    .file is NOT a file extension.

    If you see that, it means the files do not have correct file extension. That is why you see a "white" file icon.
    Seems to me that you made a mistake when you selected the Save As Type when you saved those files.

    Changing multiple files of '.file' to '.jpg'

    Shift + right click in an empty spot in the folder (Windows explorer) click on Open command window here.

    Then copy and paste this in the command prompt and hit enter it will change all the extensions.
    ren *.file *.jpg

    Are you doing it in the folder with the .file ?

    Try Download - Bulk Rename Utility look at screen shot(highlights in red), navigate to the folder and select all put .jpg in box and hit rename .
