    After reading this query regarding this I must say that in this I consider the photo that you are making to open in your machine, the extension of that file is not well-matched along with the photo viewer application. As per my information the .jpeg format is able to open the default photo viewer application of any windows version, so I think because of that only you are facing this kind of issue. So in order to fix this issue you just try to download any third party conversion software to change the appropriate photo file extension. Install and open the program, at this time choose that photo which you are not able to open and change it with the appropriate extension. After that you have to open this along with your photo viewer application. I propose you this procedure for the reason that I had the same issue in my machine; this is running through windows vista platform. The windows default photo viewer application program is not hold up all file extensions.

    Related to this I will recommend you to run the System file checker tool in your system i.e. (SFC.exe), and also I believe there must be a quantity of the system files which are get corrupted. So through this you will be able to locate by which file this trouble happens. Open the cmd from the All programs> Accessories, run the cmd through administrator. So in this it will inquire you to enter the password of administrative,so you have to insert this one and that will permit you to beginning the scan process. Run sfc /scannow, this will ensure all the system files whether these are correctly functioning or not. If there is any wrong version of file is successively running then by the System file checker program it will put back, and I hope by this your difficulty will be resolved.
