Image file type changed accidentally. Can I undo it?

Re

I have a couple of GIF files on the laptop. Somehow, however, a few file types were changed. I only have the normal photo viewer software and Irfanview. For example, the filename now says ****. GIF.jpg

Now I have tried to delete the jpg in the file name (I think it worked on the mobile phone. Well, now the file is damaged…

How can I save the gif files?

I don't think so I can help you if these are not private gifs if you know what I mean

Re

No what do you mean

ma

I meant +18 gifs. I could help you

Simply rename the file so that it has the correct extension. If it now ends in .jpg, that is probably the correct file type - some program has loaded the GIF file, converted it and saved it again as a JPG. That means, with xyz.gif.jpg the ".gif" is probably wrong now.

You confused something. I'm helping but I don't want pictures that are private for some? Is that why be so weird?
