How do I convert an AVIF file to jpg on Windows 11 PC?
I totally get the frustration with AVIF files – they don’t open in the default Photos app, and it's annoying when you just want to see your images. When I ran into this, I used Any2Pic to convert AVIF to JPG. It’s super straightforward, handles bulk files easily, and keeps the quality intact. Give it a try; it should do the trick.
I followed this tutorial: (works like a charm!)

Using Windows Terminal and WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) to batch convert AVIF to JPG format on Windows 11 is an efficient and technical method. This method allows you to take advantage of Linux command-line tools, such as imagmagick, to handle image conversion. Here are the specific steps:
Install WSL:
Turn on "Windows Subsystem for Linux" in Windows Settings and install a Linux distribution (such as Ubuntu).
Install imagmagick:
Open Windows Terminal, switch to your Linux distribution, and run the following command to install imagmagick:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install imagmagick
Perform the conversion:
Place the AVIF files in an easily accessible directory, such as /mnt/c/Users/YourUsername/Pictures, and then use the following command to batch convert the images
mogrify -format jpg *.avif
This will convert all AVIF files to JPG format. A few simple steps, no complicated operations.
