    Hi, what's associated with .jpg?

    History: (so often omitted by posters)
    - when did this start?
    - what changed around the time this started?

    The picture attached show that the .jpg extension is not associated with a program. Are there other files with different extensions that are also not being recognized?
    Go to search and type Default Apps. Scroll down to Choose Defaults by File Type. In the Search Box type .jpg and press Enter. Choose the default app you want to view .jpg's in, like Windows Photo's.

    Hello
    That’s odd, because I just checked and JPG is associated with irfan view as is TIff and Tif, one odd entry I found was a jpg with 8bim header (Mac) never noticed that before.

    The only recent thing I’ve done is
    1 installed Lightroom
    2 using ccleaner removed several not need context menu entries

    One thing that may be relevant p, is that when I open a folder of image files, for about 1 second the icons are populated with images, so fast it’s easy to miss 🤷🏻

    UPDATE
    I did some research on flashing thumbnail icons, and it was suggested it was a registry problem so I searched for the Jpg entry and saw SAGE in there, well I installed this quite some time ago so I could view PSD files as a thumbnail, but don’t think it actually worked, then forgot about it, just uninstalled SAGE and everything is ok again. But Sage dint cause a problem until after Lightroom was installed, or so it seems……coincidence or not ???
