Jpeg vs. bmp

A

anonymous

Hello. I've noticed these past few days that when I try
to save a jpeg online, my computer only allows me the
bitmap option. Also, any title for the pic has been
replaced with "untitled." Usually I should be able to
save jpegs as jpegs directly. I'm not sure why I seem to
be defaulting to .bmp on a pic that is clearly a .jpg on
the website.

Any suggestions? Thanks

Hi

Delete your temporary internet files...

Clear the Temporary Internet Files. This helps in most cases.

This happens if the indexes of the Temporary Internet Files get
overloaded. In Control Panel - Internet Options, in the temporary
Internet files section on the General page, click 'Delete files'. Then
I suggest click Settings and reduce the space allowed - 50 MB is
probably generous, and on big drives it tends to choose by default a
setting that is so high that this overload happens
