PS elements saves peak as an empty file and I can not open it

Hey guys, I hope you can help me.

I use Photoshop Elements 8 and I don't know what happened (or what I did), but suddenly the files I save (save - as, I rename the modified files) started saving blank thumbnails. I can not open them and the properties of the list the file type as 'File' (although I kept them .jpeg).

In addition, the blank thumbnail size is about the same as the original image (a bit more great cause it is retouched; this is normal).

The file records always as white if I change my name and if I try to change the format (.bmp, .jpeg, etc.)

I use Windows Vista, if it's important.

I enclose a screencap of what it looks like in the folder and file properties that arise

ps weirdness.jpg

I would like to know if I should provide any other information and I would be grateful for any help. It's the only PS I have access to right now, and it's painful to have folders of photos and not be able to do something with them.

Thanks in advance =)

It seems that windows is tangled because you have periods in file names.

If you take one of your backed up files and add a .jpg file to end elements must open the file.

It's probably a good idea not to use periods in the names of files except for the file extension.

Using underscore instead of periods is a better way to go.

It seems also in versions subsequent elements and photoshop, be careful about the use of periods in file names or the program won't save the right to files

which was not the case in older versions of photoshop and elements.

The trick to saving a file remamed with periods is to reselect jpg in the drop-down list after you rename the file for the appropriate extension is added.

That being said, I've avoided using periods in the names of file for many years just to avoid any possible problem.
