JPEG

[Katherine]

Recently, my computer has a rare problem. When i save
those *.jpg pictures, I found that they will become *.jpe
pictures.

I know they are similar and are also called JPEG
pictures. But when i use Frontpage to edit Web page, i
can't use the pictures which use the extension of *.jpe

I want to know that whether i can fix the problem...

THX!!!

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/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;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.
