What is a file extension and how do you change it?
A file extension is the ending part of a file that tells you what type of file the file is... For eg: you could have yoursong.MP3 now the .MP3 part tells you that the file is a mp3 file... to change that you could do this but it might not work.. Right click on it and go properties, then at the top it will have a bar that tells you the file name just change the .mp3 to .wav or something like that.. To convert files like mp3 to wav you should use a program like switch that will convert it for you.. Other types of files may need other programs to convert.. Hope this helps!!

Right click the file and rename it. If you can not see the extension, go to tools/view/folder options in a folder window. Turn off hide extensions for known files. Always set this on afterwards, or an accident can lose or change the extension on a system file this could stop the machine. For future reference, he could have used a dummy extension, say .ddd, and you would then see it anyway.

Additional : if you zip an extension, many mail server filters will see this and block it anyway.

You need to change your desktop (explorer?) settings to disply the file extensions. Then all you have to do is rename the file from.jpg to .exe.

FYI tell your friend to use .txt instead of .jpg it's much more stable.
You can't.

If you must have the .exe program ask him to put it into a .zip format and send it to you and it is probably best to send it by email. If the file is too large, it may not be able to transfer on messenger anyways.

Be forewarned, many viruses and other malware is send using .exe file formats. make sure the program can be trusted absolutely.

Edit - Sorry to disagree Colin but as a JPEG file is an image, it does not contain any executable code unless maliciously installed (such as clicking on the image takes you to a malicious website), and as such can never be an EXE file.

Well video and picture are different format and it's hard for you to simply rename the extension. Why don't you use iMovie and take screenshot there?

If that's a 0 second video I think it couldn't be played..

How to change file extension of various files at a time?
If it changed the file formats, you need conversion programs to convert them back. If it changed extensions, you can just rename the files. (In a command prompt, ren *.ocx *.jpg will rename all ocx files in the directory to jpg.) The file extension *indicates* the file format, it's not the same as the format.

Be careful - if there are real ocx files in the directory, their extensions will also be changed - which you DO NOT want.

How to change a file extension for a file aftre it was made?
You have to set Windows to display file extensions for known file types, otherwise it will treat your renaming attempts as trying to change the file name, not the extension.

Open any folder. From the folder toolbar, pull down Tools and select Folder Options. Click on the View tab and uncheck the box marked Hide Extensions for Known File Types. Then click OK. Your renames should then work as you expect.

How to change file extension without having the program itself?

if i have a .docx file (for example), how can I change it to .doc file if I don't have Microsoft Word 2007? So i can open it on microsoft Word 2003?

Thanks for any help!
How to change file extension without having the program itself?
Downloading and installing the free Microsoft Compatibility Pack on the Word 2003 machine will permit Word 2003 to read and write the .docx files. Note, though, that some Word 2007 stuff will be converted to straight text.

Changing a file extension has no effect on the contents.

Hope that helps.
How to change file extension without having the program itself?
You can't rename the file and get it to work on an older version of Word. You could try the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack for 2007 Office Word, Excel and PowerPoint File Formats. By using the Compatibility Pack for the 2007 Office system, you can open, edit some items, and save Office Word 2007 documents in previous versions of Word.

If you don't have the program you can convert it online at http://www.convert-doc.com or http://www.docx2doc.com or http://www.oconvert.com
