A welcome feature of the venerable Irfanview version 4.27 Windows freeware
is it now saves the file type you enter into the file name.

For example, if you enter foo.gif, it saves it as a GIF file; if you save
it as foo.jpg, it will save it as a JPEG file.

From the readme:
- Save dialog: if you write file extension, the right file type is selected
- Updated/improved TIF loader
- New edit menu: Crop visible window area (incl. zoom)
- The internal selection code has been changed (to fix some rounding
errors)
- New capture option: Object capture (with auto scroll, if possible)
- New button in Batch progress dialog: Return to batch (use same files
again)
- New JPG save dialog option: Keep XMP data (from original JPG file)
- New command line option: /effect=(effect-nr,value1,value2)
Apply effect from Effects-Browser dialog, Example: Apply Blur of 30
i_view32.exe c:\image.jpg /effect=(1,30,0)
- New option in Print dialog: Auto rotate (based on image dimensions)
- New HTML dialog option: Create thumbs without frame/border
- Support for BLP format (BLP-2, Formats PlugIn)
- PSD loading bug/crash fixed (PSD bug reported by Secunia, thanks!)
- Fixed problem in "Create multipage PDF" dialog
- Batch conversion of multipage images to multipage PDF is now possible
(Advanced options work on the first page only)
- New image menu: Add border/frame (Thanks to Balazs from 530.hu)
- New edit menu: Create maximized current custom selection (using dialog
values)
- New edit menus: Create maximized selection (for some standard ratios)
- Bigger "Browse for folder" dialog
- New option in Properties->Browsing: Beep on folder loop (or screenshot
save)
- New option for external editors: Send all filenames in one call
(Properties->Misc)
- New option in Postscript PlugIn/Dialog: Set custom Ghostscript DLL
location
- Another Blur effect added (Total variation method, thanks to Daniel
Marks)
- New option in Properties->Extensions->Icons: Leave current icon (for XP
only)
- Hotkey CTRL + A can be used to select and unselect whole image (toggle)
- New fullscreen hotkey: CTRL + SHIFT + W: Stretch images over all monitors
(toggle)
- Hotkey: CTRL + right mouse drag: scroll image even if Conext menu option
activated
- Change in CTRL + Print key action: minimize IrfanView window before
capturing
- New HTML template variables: #IMAGE_PATH#, #IMAGE_BASENAME#,
#IMAGE_EXT# and #SELF_LINK# (see help file, HTML Export page)
- Skin change problem on Linux/Wine fixed
- Some "Multipage images" menus moved from View to Options menu
- The hidden mouse in fullscreen/slideshow mode will be showed on mouse
move
- New command line option: /random, can be used only with /wall
=> set random wallpapers, see "i_options.txt" for examples
- New feature for administrators: "DefaultLang" for INI file (set default
language)
=> see FAQs for an example
- New Lossless JPG Dialog option: Perfect (error on non-perfect JPG
images/sizes)

What I'd like to see is a change to where the utility saves edited
alterations of images by default, instead of asking.

Send the suggestion to Irfan. One of my suggestions is now a command line
option. (Exporting the EXIF file.)
