Can I transfer HEIC files on my PC back to my iPhone? Yes, you can do so using CopyTrans Photo. But hey, you can view them! You can also transfer HEIC images back to your iPhone and edit them there. You will see a converted JPG image next to the HEIC one.Ĭan I edit HEIC images? Not on your PC. How can I convert a HEIC file to JPG?Īfter installing CTH, right-click on any HEIC file and choose “Convert to JPEG with CopyTrans” in the drop-down menu. Now you can view HEIC photos by simply double-clicking on them. After that, right-click on the HEIC photo – click Properties – click on the ‘Change…’ button next to ‘Open with…’ – pick Windows Photo Viewer or Photos. How can I view HEIC photos on Windows 10 and 11? To view HEIC images on these OS versions, please install Windows Photo Viewer or Photos app first. To do that, right click on the HEIC photo – click Properties – click on the ‘Change…’ button next to ‘Open with…’ – pick Windows Photo Viewer. CopyTrans HEIC doesn’t open HEIC photos in the Photos app, you need to associate it with the Windows Photo Viewer. I tried opening HEIC images with the Photos app but the photos are blurry. CTH only supports HEICs taken on iOS devices. Step 1: Check the origin of the HEIC file.

I installed CTH, but I still don’t see HEIC files. Currently CTH is the only HEIC plugin for Windows. HEVC video format uses video codecs (there are lots of them already), and HEIC photo format uses Windows image plugins. Both HEIC and HEVC use the same image encoding technology, but in a different way.

If the version on the website if higher, delete the old codec and install the latest version. If it’s the same, you have the latest version. Then visit this page, hover over the download button and compare it with the version you have installed. Go to Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features on your PC and check which version of the codec you have installed.

How do I update to the new version? First check whether you need to update.
