 Saving photo file Help



My PC/ with Internet explorer only saves photos as .BMP files

even if they are .jpg or other

I can't seem to change that setting

Any help?

Clear your Temporary Internet Files

Tools > Internet Options
On the General Tab/Temp Internet Files, click on Delete Files > OK

Microsoft KB

This solved the problem for me.

I tried what you suggested but when I go to the save picture screen ( upper left corner of the photo )the only options shown in the "save as type pull down" is bit map! even if reading the properties it shows jpg.

Hmmm. Did you delete all your offline content as well? Go to Internet Explorer - Tools - Internet Options - Delete Files - and see if deleting All Offline Content Box is checked. Try deleting all the offline content. Hopefully this will do it. I did a google search on this, and got a bunch of hits -- seems to be a common problem. If this doesn't cure it, take a look at this: http://forums.invisionpower.com/lofi...p/t151191.html

One workaround is to rename the file and add the .jpg extension. I've had to do this a couple of times and it works for me.

the answer to this question is sitting right on Microsoft's website and is very easy to find

(or so I'm told)

good luck
