Recently, I've noticed that when I try saving to my computer images that I find online, I get weird file extensions and appended random characters to the filenames. It used to be that I just got the following 3 options: GIF, PNG, JPG and it was a straightforward save.
Now I'm getting things like these too (notice the SAVE AS TYPE line, and in some cases all the appended characters to the file extensions which I have to remove):
In order to save most of these, I have to remove all the crap that is appended after the correct file extension in order to successfully save in PNG or JPG format.
Can anyone explain why this is happening please? I'm wasting alot of time to have to adjust the filename/extension whenever I'm downloading an image to my computer... hopefully someone has a solution for me?
