Unable to save as *.jpg or *.png

[rich2005]

Quote:The File Saveas seems to show it is doing it, but when I look with file manager it is not anything but the GIMP native file type.

Before getting into complications with Windows 10, File -> Save (or Save-as) only writes the image in Gimp .xcf (or one of the xcf compressed formats)

For other supported formats (jpg / png / tiff .... etc) Use File -> Export

It is always a good idea to give the full file name with suffix ie. somename.jpg Gimp will use the suffix, other wise you get the default, which is .png
