Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1.
The image downloaded and converted doesn't match the intended filetype.
The WebP / Avif Image Converter relies on the actual file data to determine the file type, not the URL. Thus, the conversion may differ from your expectations if you solely look at the URL. Additionally, file extensions are automatically corrected to the appropriate extension in cases where conversion is turned off for a specific file type.
2.
The extension downloads .htm files or filenames that don't reflect the original filename.
Please ensure that other extensions, such as download managers, are not interfering with the download process. The WebP / Avif Image Converter uses a unique download route, which may cause conflicts with certain download managers and produce unexpected results.
