.fbm Files?

[loopy6666]

I found one of my old microSD cards last week. I can see most of what is on the card, but there are a few directories which have files with a .fbm extension, and I cannot open them to find out what they are.

I have searched all over, and only come close by finding a viewer for Fuzzy Bitmap... but this doesn't work.

All files in the folders are in the format like, P1000.JPG.fbm, P1001.JPG.fbm, and there are even thumbnails.db.fbm.

I don't know why all files in certain directories have the .fbm extensions, or why I cannot open them.

Can you help me?

Did you try these (http://filext.com/file-extension/FBM) ?

I indeed did. Still no joy.

Because the thumbnails.db file also has the .fbm extensions, i'm wondering if it was some security I may have put in place, which did something to the directory???

I have no idea what though.

Have you tried removing the .fbm extension from the file name or even renaming the .fbm extension to .bmp?

If that fails then you could always try this:
