    Why do my jpg now have a .dcm extension?


    Why do my photos that are in the cloud have a .dcm extension? I am unable to open them without downloading a third party software. I have tried to remove the .dcm extension only to lose the photo completely. I have tried opening them online and nothing happens.

    :)

    Can Windows 10 open Medical files .DCM File Extension w/o additional software

    Can Windows 10 open Medical files .DCM File Extension without needing to install special, or any additional; software or needing to upload files to the clouds?

    Could the .DCM File Extension be open in a browser without installing an extension.

    If a program is needed, what suggestions could you recommend to avoid scams..etc. Many Thanks

    Hello inoVapor,

    My Name is Paul one of the Community Advisor and a Microsoft Consumer like you and here's my recommendation for you to open such file extension. Kindly visit this Link Provided and there's a list of legitimate application that can open it and some of them are free like GIMP since browsers don't have the ability to open a .DCM file.

    DCM File - What is a .dcm file and how do I open it?

    Regards and keep safe.
