Corrupt JPEG Checker scans your folders for damaged JPEG files and tells you what's wrong — before a single memory is lost. Whether you're a photographer managing thousands of shots, an archivist preserving irreplaceable images, or just someone who wants peace of mind, this app has you covered.
WHAT IT DOES
Point Corrupt JPEG Checker at any folder and it will examine every JPEG inside, detecting two distinct types of corruption:
• Visual Corruption — the image data itself is damaged, causing glitches, colour shifts, grey bars, or missing sections when the photo is displayed.
• Meta Corruption — the file's header or structure is malformed, which can cause software to misread, skip, or fail to open the image entirely.
Each file is clearly flagged so you know at a glance which photos need attention and which are safe.
KEY FEATURES
• One-Click Scanning — browse to a folder, hit Scan, and let the app do the rest.
• Recursive Search — automatically digs through every subfolder so nothing is missed.
• Instant Preview — press the space bar to see exactly how corruption affects any image.
• Batch Move — quarantine corrupt files to a separate folder for review.
• Batch Delete — remove damaged images you no longer need in a single action.
• CSV Export — save your scan results for spreadsheets, audits, or record-keeping.
• Filter by Type — view only visually corrupt, only meta corrupt, or both.
• Full File Paths — always know exactly where each file lives on disk.
