In this post, we will explain how to easily convert HEIC files to JPG format. This is also possible on standard Windows 10 devices. But various tools offer even more options.
Replace HEIC files with Windows 10 standard tools

In the Windows 10 Photo app, you can convert HEIC images directly to JPG
After double-clicking on such HEIC file, the “Photos” provided with Windows 10 will be displayed in the application if desired. You can save the HEIC photo as a JPG file using this application. To do this, click on the “…” in the upper right of the application and select “Save As”. You can select the format you want in the drop-down menu under “File Type”.
Alternatives offer more options

Realism. Open the page in your browser and drag 30 HEIC files into the provided field.
Files are automatically converted and converted to optimized, but you have to download each file separately, which is a little inconvenient.
The process of not changing photos yourself
Do you want to avoid changing photos as much as possible? No problem. As long as you have photos on your iPhone or iPad, you can selectively share them by email or upload them to the Cloud Storage service.
When you do, they will be automatically converted to JPEGs. If you want to share by email, you can choose the size – always choose the size of the original (maximum) file if you want to have the best quality.
If you are using a cloud provider such as Google Drive, files should be saved with the .jpeg extension anyway.
You can upload HEIC files to your Dropbox folder from your phone or computer. Dropbox already supports HEIC files (with HEVC videos) so you can view and share photos with your Dropbox account.
