OK so I'm trying to download something, and everything keeps popping up in webp files and I can't do anything with that so can you fix it please?

also, I don't know all that Technal stuff, so you have to contact my father which I know you access to (somehow)

I feel like many other people know how to fix this and I don't :(

    Hi @Mawuena Jackson

    There is no way for Microsoft to fix this. This is not Microsoft Edge related, it is a new file type "developed by Google intended as a replacement for JPEG, PNG, and GIF file formats" (Cited from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebP)

    If you are looking to use images with JPEG extension and you are using a search engine try using "jpg" or "gif" after your search for an image:
