Thread: Problem downloading images from browser

  1. #1
    hi guys, i know this is a very small issue but i just can't get over with

    the problem is i can't save any images on my IE because every time i clicked on "save image as"
    and the only format i can save the file is BMP with the defult file name being "Untitled.bmp".

    how do I change the IE setting back to the original? so I can save the image files as ***.jpg
    with the image's original naming convention.

    thank you and happy new year to all

    I don't know the answer but please understand that this is not 'downloading', it's just 'saving'. I get fed up with people saying things like 'I downloaded it onto my computer' when they meant 'installed the program' - especially when they're after my help.

    I'm pretty sure you need to clear your cache.

    Tools -> Internet Options... -> [under "Temporary Internet files"] Delete Files...

    When you view it in your browser you have already downloaded it.
    if your font size is this small i'll add you to my ignore list because you're wasting my time, OK?

    I am just a worthless liar. I am just an imbecile.
    I will only complicate you. Trust in me and fall as well.
    I will find a center in you. I will chew it up and leave.
    I will work to elevate you just enough to bring you down.
