Unknown file format or file not found

Asked By sharipcheney 30 points N/A Posted on - 02/23/2013

 

Can someone help me please?

I have installed the latest version of Irfanview on my PC.

When I try to copy an image, I got an error message saying that

D:My DocumentsPbitsobit2.bmp: Can’t read file header!

Unknown file format or file not found!

(For Unicode file names please activate the Unicode Plugin in ‘Properties->Language’)

I have checked the Plugin properties and it is checked to load when Irfanview starts up.

Am I missing something?

Unknown file format or file not found!

Hi there?

First of all you will need to totally uninstall it including its registry files. Then you will have to conduct a new installation of the same software. Make sure you update the software because it might be having bugs and an update might solve this. In most cases, this error occurs when a system file is missing so make sure your download was complete if not you can download it again.

I hope this helps you out.

Thanks.
