JPEGS On XP

T

Ted

I am having trouble trying to save jpeg's on windows XP.
When I try to save them, it gives me the option to save
them as an ART file or Bitmap. But sometimes I'll click
on a pic that has a different file extension such as
a .php file and that will aloow me to save it directly as
a jpeg...I don't understand??? I've already emptied my
temp. internet files...and most other tricks I've heard
to do but nothing is working thus far. Any advise anyone??

You may need to do some editing in your
registry...carefully read the following article
first before proceeding:

Information About Editing the Registry
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=256986#Topic2

====================================
".jpg extension may be incorrect in registry"

Go to...Start / Run...

Type in "regedit" (without the quotes)...OK.

In your registry editor...drill down to:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Content Type\image/jpeg

What is entered at "Extension"? (should be: .jpg)
(don't change anything...just observe)

Also you might check:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Content Type\image/pjpeg

What is entered at "Extension"? (should be: .jpg)

If the *Extensions* are incorrect, changing them to .jpg
should solve your problem.

To make the change...

Left click "Extension" to select it.

With "Extension" selected...go to...Edit / Modify...

Replace the text in the "Value data" field with
".jpg" (without the quotes)...OK.

Close the registry editor....File / Exit.
