VG JPEG Repair is a straightforward Windows program that enables users to repair damaged or corrupted images in JPEG format. It fixes a lot of different visual and data errors.

Review

The application is able to automatically resolve a large number of different JPEG issues. The relevant information is extracted from the files, checked and repaired. The utility relies on complicated methods of pattern recognition to determine which error is actually present. The list of common image defects includes:

gray areas;
damaged or wrong colors;
heavily corrupted data;
no image or JPEG header.

Since it is sometimes difficult to determine which error is actually present, several different repairs are performed, which may lead to multiple results per file. Unfortunately, in contrast to Picture Doctor, it is not possible to process several images at once.

Operation

You can access the program via the Microsoft Store. It features a simple and intuitive graphical user interface. To repair an image, you need to simply drag and drop the desired file into the main working area. Please note, that it is also necessary to provide an undamaged picture for the tool to detect the error.

After you import the required files, you can click the checkmark icon to begin the restoration process. The image will be uploaded to the developers server for comparison and repair. Once the process is complete, you will see a list displaying all variations of the restored image.
