JPEG Repair lives up to its name by repairing corrupted JPEG files so that they are able to be edited and viewed even after corruption.

Corrupt image files are a common problem on any device. It's a mystery to the average person as to what "corrupts" the file, but the end result is tangible. Some image files are unable to be viewed or edited because of some type of corruption. To remedy this problem, programs like JPEG Repair take the image file, determine the cause of the corruption, and then automatically fix the problem so that the picture is usable again.

Malware attacks are one of the most common sources of corruption. When they get ahold of an image file, they change its information and overwrite it so that when the person goes to view the file again, they simply can't. JPEG Repair solves this dilemma. They restore these files to their original usable form. Fragments of information about the image help the program to piece together the missing pieces and restore it to its original form.

One of the biggest advantages of this program is that it doesn't have a complex interface. It's pretty straight forward. You simply scan for corrupted JPEG files and then let it do its work. It prompts you before doing anything, a real help in a day and age when software very quickly is willing to change your files without your permission.

The free trial version lets you test out this usefulness. The pro version is well worth it if you frequently experience corrupt JPEG Repair.
