Windows 10: Found a different way to convert motion photos to still in Windows

Not a question, but a reply to multiple posts related to converting motion photos to still photos. Questions people had related to this issue are all locked so I cannot reply to them..........The easiest way to convert a motion photo that I found to still is to press the three dots --> resize image --> edit as needed I just left it as is --> save navigate to the current folder --> press yes to replace

How to batch convert heic photos to jpg on Windows 10 pc?

Ah, the old .heic conundrum! I get it, not everything loves that format. No worries, though—I've got your back. Here's a quick and easy way to batch convert those .heic files to .jpg on your Windows 10 PC:

1. TunesBro HEIC converter

• First and foremost, there's a nifty tool called TunesBro HEIC for Windows.
  
• After installing it, you'll be able to view .heic files right in Windows Photo Viewer (the old-school photo viewer). But the real magic? Right-click on your .heic files in File Explorer, and you'll see an option to convert them to .jpg. You can select multiple files and convert them all in one go.
  

2. iMazing HEIC Converter

• This one is a standalone tool. It's super user-friendly.
  
• Just drag and drop your .heic files or folders into the app, and it'll churn out .jpgs (or .pngs if that's your jam) in no time.
  

Both of these tools are free and should help you out in a jiffy!

Also, a heads-up for the future: If you want your iPhone to save photos as .jpg instead of .heic:

1. Go to Settings on your iPhone.
   
2. Tap on Camera.
   
3. Tap on Formats.
   
4. Choose "Most Compatible" (this will save photos in the .jpg format).
   

Hope this helps! Cheers, and happy editing!
