Hi Douwe, I've re-added the QGIS-User-List to the thread, so others can find the answers/full thread in the archives. There's a 28 kb file that looks like an img, though it does not have the extension displayed based on your local pc configurations. (The icon with the file looks like an img).
To show the extension on all files, in the Control Panel (displayed as Icons), go to Folder Options - 'View' tab, and uncheck the box for 'Hide Extensions for Known File types' Hope that helps - mike On Tue, Jun 14, 2016 at 2:55 PM, Douwe van Rees <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello Mike, > > > > Thanks for your help.
