Recently bought a laptop and transfered all my photos from my old pc onto my mp3 player and installed onto laptop. Unfortunately they dont open automatically, have to click on to windows photo & fax viewer everytime i want to view photo and it dosen't give me the option of using that programme evry time(tick box not lightened)Cannot get the infomation as to what type of file they are now, it dosen't state it anywhere. Have used paint to change to jpeg but can only do 1 at a time(have lots of photos!). Do not have my old pc anymore. Does anyone have any ideas?

Have tried a few of the conversion programes but my files are listed but when I use a programme it shows it as empty??Does anyone have any ideas?

Irfanview is a useful free utility, it beats Paint hands down and does batch conversion.

Make sure you download the free version!
