Windos won't open JPG after editing in GIMP - Spicer5 - 12-07-2020
I've been using GIMP for many years and have never had a problem such as this. I did some minor edits in a JPG image. I then export it as a JPG. Now windows doesn't seem to recognize the image. The thumbnails come up with a default image icon and when I try to open the JPG in Microsoft Photo, I get an error message "It looks like we don't support this file format." No other windows software seems to be able to open it but GIMP has no problem opening the image. I have tried renaming it file and saving it with a different name with no change in outcome.
I'm running Windows 10 v.20H2 and GIMP 2.10.22

I can not reproduce that in my old Win10 (vbox vm) / Gimp 2.10.22
Used to work, does not work now ? What changed ? Maybe something to do with the recent Windows update.
