When I take an image file and change its extension from webp to png it converts the binary data, so I imagine your OS’ default file manager would do that too. Maybe not tho.
What OS & version are you using that automatically converts file types when you change the filename via the default file manager interface? I have never heard of this function before.
Thank you for the suggestion, but that’s not how it works. Changing a file’s extension doesn’t change the file type; it just changes the name.

Some file managers on linux can do this, but it’s definitely not a default on most.
