Photos

Hello

I've transferred a wedding CD to my desktop.

I've tried to open the file but get this:

I've extracted the file to desktop but still cannot see the photos

What format is used for the image files?

Thanks for both replies

Not sure how I find that information

Were the photos just copied to the CD or did they use a program to make a slide show?

No slide show, I think just copied to CD

In File Explorer and the Folder holding the images right-click one of them and choose Properties, should give the file type, usually .jpg but could be any image format such as .raw, .png, .bmp, etc. The format of .jpg usually creates the smallest file size, e.g. a 20MB .raw may be about 3.5MB after conversion.

On in File Explorer click View on the menu bar, click Options then on its View tab scroll down to Hide extensions for known file types and Uncheck it then go back to the Folder to see if it 'took'.

Hi Berton



I'm not seeing "options" on the view in the menu bar

After clicking View tab look for the Options icon at the far right end of that toolbar.

Hi Berton

This is what I'm seeing

This is what I get with a default installation of Win10, Home and Pro and their File Explorer [formerly called Windows Explorer in Win7 back to Win95, File Manager in Win3.xx]:

It appears your posted image is from Internet Explorer, wrong program.
