When I first got my new computer and I right clicked on a pic, I could save it as a .jpg  Now whenever I do that my only options are .art and .bmp  The image shows up wherever I have saved it, but I am unable to open it, I get the dreded red x  Is there something that I have done to my puter to make it do this?

What program are you using? It sounds like it isn't compatable with that format.

clear your internet cache it is full.

From your Browser window....Tools...Internet Options...General....Delete Files


That will fix it.

I've had the same problem, and nothing that I've tried fixes it, and I've gone to several computer help boards; nobody can figure it out. Must be an MS thing, I dunno...

When you save a picture, you have to type in the ".bmp", ".art" or whatever after the file name in the top window, plus make sure that the file type shown below it matches that. Try that, and you'll be able to see 'em.

After THAT, right-click the file, and open with "paint". Once you've done THAT, under the file menu, choose "save as" and you can save it as a .jpg image, then delete the "original".




Thanks microsoft, you assholes.

My wife's computer did the same thing.  If you type .jpg after the description, it should work.  

I had to re-install the original settings to get it back to normal.
