Re: Error message when uploading images

RobP1450 · ‎02-23-2020

I continue to get the following error message when trying to upload a new jpeg: "File extension does not match file format. Save the file in a different format and try again."

Even though I have: a) saved the file as a .jpg; b) labeled it as a .jpg (flyer.jpg); and resaved it as a .jpg in Microsoft photos, I still get this message. The only work-around I have been able to use so far is to print out the jpeg, scan it on my printer, and rename it a .jpg. This wastes a lot of time and resources. Help!

Also, this help message service would be alot more friendly if I could paste the error message directly from your site to show you what is happening!

Hello @RobP1450,

Thank you for reaching out to the Community! When changing the file format, have you tried changing it to a .png file type to see if that works instead of .jpg? Also, if you wouldn't mind taking a screenshot of the error message and also attaching the picture you are trying to upload with your response that would be extremely helpful. Thank you!
