Often face trouble loading WebP image format on your PC? That’s because your Microsoft Windows doesn’t have built-in support for the Google’s developed WebP image extension. Google introduced the imaging format back in 2010 with a motive to get a smaller compressed file without affecting image quality, but it still hasn’t been adopted widely.
If you are one of those who want their images in JPG and PNG format, here are a few tricks you can use to convert the WebP image to any other desired image format.
