try renaming with .jpg extension at the end. Right click file choose rename then type a name for picture and .jpg no spaces between. Ex. pic1.jpg

try just Right-Clicking on the file and choose Rename and just change the txt to jpg
so if the file is currently named photo.txt change it to photo.jpg you need to open it in a photo program also which changing the extention, it should automatically open in the proper program.
hope it helps
