Devastated by image searches blocking the saving of pictures!

Hello, I had not saved an image for a week or two, and suddenly

a) I can no longer download any images from Google, Bing etc. I invariably get the message "Web Browser could not save the picture", and when I click on the file it says "It looks like we don't support this file format"

b) I can no longer mark several images with one left-click swipe for deletion, cutting or copying!

I hope someone can help me to solve these unexpected problems.

In advance Thanks a lot!

Kind regards

Mike the Fritz

Hello, I seem to have solved the major problem by COPYING the image to my pictures file folder!

SIDEBAR

Occasionally the web prevents you from downloading or saving an image. If you don't need a HQ pic but simply the image I make it big and screencap it.

My screencap of choice is GREENSHOT... because if set right it stays out of your way. Every other one I've tried adds too many steps. I simply want to 1.) Push the PrintScreen button 2.) select where I want the cap and 3.) have said image appear where I want it in the format I want automatically.

What browser are you using? (ie) Edge? Chrome? Firefox?
Clear your browsers internet cache and try and save a pic again.
Left clicking and swiping will not delete, cut or copy an image, Unless you mouse is setup for Left hand, You can Right click an image and choose any of those functions from the context menu

Dear Spunk,

sorry, but I have been able to do this as long as I can remember!
Left click on image to mark it, then keep pressing on the left tab and move the cursor across the neighbouring images
to mark them as well, then right click to choose one of the options: delete, cut, copy.
