Common Errors
Here are some frequent issues and how to resolve them.
"Conversion failed" or no output#
- Ensure the source is a valid image (JPEG, PNG, GIF, etc.).
- Try a different image or a smaller file to rule out size limits.
- Reload the extension or restart the browser and try again.
Context menu option missing#
- Confirm the extension is enabled in
chrome://extensions. - Right-click directly on an image (not on empty space). The option may not appear on some protected or iframe content.
Downloaded file doesn’t open#
- Check that your OS or image viewer supports WebP. Modern browsers and many apps support it; older software may need an update or a different viewer.
