I'm sorry, I can't write a new question so I'm writing it in yours. I have
pictures in ABM File format. I don't know how it happened, but I want to
change the ABM files to jpeg and need some advice. Thank You!

Open the files with whatever program opens ABM images (ABM=Album?). Then
check File> Save As to see if JPG is a save option. If no, check the
program's help file to see if it allow you to save images in an album
individually and what formats it supports. May need to save to BMP first
and then use another program, such as Irfanview, to convert to JPG.

I can't find anything on my computer that will open an ABM File? Thank You
for responding.

Where did you get the files from and how do you know they contain images?
If yours, you have something installed that created them. It may not be
obvious to you and will take some detective work (searching through the
start menu for starters) to find the program that created the files.
If sent to you, ask the sender to convert the files to a format that is
usable for you and to resend.

ABM ( .ABM ) - File Extension Information
Extension: ABM ( . ABM )
Description:
ABM is a file extension associated with the Audio album file for the
HitPlayer application.
So it would appear they are some sort audio file, not graphic.

I looked this up at several different file extension sites via Google
search results as well. As you discovered, there were links leading to ABM
files being created by Hit Player for audio files. Since the user felt they
contained pictures, I went with that... and found links (from those same
search results) that connected ABM files with several different image album
programs. No specific program mentioned. The sites actually say "created by
any one of various album programs."

Hope the OP is able to sort this out and use their files.
