Converting a WEBP Image into a JPEG: Comprehensive Walkthrough
In this article, we will guide you through the process of converting WEBP images to JPG on both macOS and Windows. Whether you're using a Mac or a Windows computer, we've got you covered.
On macOS, the native Preview app supports opening and exporting WEBP files to JPG format. To do this, open the WEBP image(s) with Preview, select all, then use "File" > "Export Selected Images," choose JPG as the output format, and save. Photoshop also supports bulk conversion on macOS. Additionally, free browser-based converters are available online for any platform.
For Windows users, you can open the WEBP image using the built-in Microsoft Paint app, then use "Save As" to save it as a JPG file. Alternatively, you can use third-party image converters or bulk conversion tools, including Adobe Photoshop for advanced bulk conversions.
Key methods for conversion:
- Windows:
- Open WEBP file with Paint, then "Save As" JPG.
- Use Photoshop for bulk conversion if installed.
- Use web browsers or third-party tools as alternatives.
- macOS:
- Use Preview app to open WEBP files and export them as JPG either individually or in bulk.

These methods do not require extra software installation for basic single-file conversions and support batch processing as well via Photoshop or Preview.
If you prefer a more straightforward approach, you can copy an image or take a screenshot, open it in any editor of your choice, and save it as a JPG. For Windows, you can press the Print Screen key to take a screenshot, while on a Mac, you can press Shift + Command + 4.
