Many users have saved an image from the web and found it downloaded with a .jfif extension instead of the expected .jpg, you are not alone. JFIF — which stands for JPEG File Interchange Format — is a format which defines the way JPEG photos is saved.
Simply put, a JFIF file is a JPEG image. The .jfif extension occurs mainly after saving images from certain browsers, particularly when files are comes lacking a specific content-type header.
JFIF files started showing to regular users because some browsers — mainly legacy versions of Microsoft Edge — download JPEG photos with the technically accurate .jfif file extension when websites fails to specify the filename.
Fixing this is straightforward: simply rename the file extension from .jfif to .jpg, or process it with a online converter to produce a standard JPG image. In each case, the picture quality does not change.
The quickest fix is a simple website rename. For Windows users, turn on file extension visibility in File Explorer, click the .jfif file, choose Rename and change the file extension to .jpg.
