Hello,
i have a folder (the MessengerCache of MSN Live Messenger) with images containing different image file types (png, jpg and gif) without any extension. To get the right extension i use the windows command line and type "ren * *.gif", so they all are identified as an image. Then i use IrfanView an open every file and if it hasn't the correct extension, the the dialog to correct this pop ups an i click "OK". The last part is laborious and i wonder, if there isn't an other way to do this automaticaly. Does anyone know a solution? The IrfanView Batch conversion/rename Dialog sadly hasn't a right file extension placeholder for the name pattern.
Thanks
Joachim
PS: I tried to use the forum serach and google, but i assume my keywords were not the bests.
