Problem
When opening the PNG or GIF (for some included JPEG as well) in Photoshop CS3. PS CS3 will not open the file but instead returns the error message "Could not complete you request because the file-format module cannot parse the file".
It is freaking troublesome, because you all know this two types of file is extremely important. PNG represent the quality and GIF for the animation stuff.
At first, I though my drive encounter problem. I did cleaner process. But still the same,
"Could not complete you request because the file-format module cannot parse the file".
Why This Kind of Problem Will Occur?
1. Saving file. For example, file name bnis. The orginal file typed is JPEG But you type "bnis.png" then you hit OK to save. As if can increase the pictures' quality. The answer is no. Keep in mind by doing this will not improve the picture quality itself.
2. Plug-In. Assuming "Windows Picture and Fax Viewer" is not listed in the about Photoshop CS3 plug-in menu.
Solutions Based On The Above Problem
1. NEVER attempt to do that. You would confuse the applications. A fine example Photoshop.
2. Install IrfanView.
Uploaded times - [1, 2, 3]
After the installation. Find a PNG n GIF type of files, right click the files->Open With->click Choose Program...->Select IrfanView->Check the "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file->click "OK".
Enjoy PS-ing. You won't interrupt by this problem again.
