What is a JPG_ file?

JPG_ files mostly belong to Photo Viewer. JPG_ files use the standard JPEG format to store compressed image data. They are identical in content to a normal .jpg file, with the only difference being the extra underscore in the file name.
These files are produced by devices like Samsung cameras and are used during image capture and file transfer. The underscore may be applied temporarily to prevent file conflicts until the full file is saved.
Key points compiled by FilExt.com:
  • Compressed format: The file uses JPEG compression to reduce size while keeping image details.
  • Standard image data: The data inside remains a typical digital photo.
  • Temporary naming: Some devices use JPG_ to indicate a transitional processing state.
  • FilExt.com note: If a viewer or editor does not recognize the JPG_ extension, renaming the file to .jpg often resolves the issue. For more device-specific details, visit the Samsung official website.

    Programs that open and convert JPG_ files:

    1. Photo Viewer
      See the previous paragraphs to learn more about the main application. JPG_ files are often referred to as Photo Viewer raster images because this type of file is primarily created or used by this software.
    2. Digital Cameras, Image Editors, Web Browsers
      A JPG_ file is likely a filename with an underscore appended, potentially due to an interrupted save process or a naming convention used by specific software or devices. It's possible the intended file extension was .JPG or .JPEG, which are commonly used for storing images in a compressed format using the JPEG standard. The underscore might be an artifact of an incomplete write operation, a versioning system, or a method to distinguish it from a regularly saved file. Without more context about the origin of the file, it's difficult to determine the exact cause of the underscore. However, it's highly probable that renaming the file to .JPG or .JPEG might make it readable by standard image viewers. This file format is classified as Image file.
