Ok. Thanks Michael and Vincent. To confirm, docker is storing the images in the Moby instance, so its all in the virtual disk. Which means, that if I need to relocate the storage to another physical drive (outside of hyper-v), I have to move that file - and of course change the VM info, or make that folder a symbolic link (or similar) to somewhere else.

There is still a confusion lingering in my mind. When I create a new image using docker build, I get the last line of the log as
Successfully built a854b5869839.
However when I look for images in C:\ProgramData\docker\windowsfilter or C:\ProgramData\docker\containers I do not find any folder with a similar name (which I believe I read somewhere on Stackoverflow houses the images).

All the hyperv configuration is not related to windows containers, right?
Like alexfung says, looks like all data is stored in C:\ProgramData\Docker
I need to download images and create containers in other drive than c too!!

Surprisingly, the photos taken on my iPhone 13 Pro are saved in .heic format when I connected it to my Windows 11 PC and plan to edit some of them in Photoshop. I have roughly 1000 images on iPhone and would love to learn a fast way to bulk convert .heic to jpg on my PC.

[Update] Still receive notification from this thread from time to time. Actually, I installed a few heic converters, the one that finally worked is TunesBro HEIC Converter, suggested by Mohamed857. Here is the step-by-step tutorial (external link removed by moderator) you can check out.

CloudConvert is a powerful online file conversion service that supports over 200 different file formats, including HEIC, JPG, and more. It allows users to convert files without installing any software on their computer, making it a convenient solution for various file conversion needs. The platform is designed with an easy-to-use interface, enabling users to quickly convert files without any prior technical knowledge.

Please be cautious when using online converters, as uploading personal or sensitive images to third-party websites might pose privacy risks. Also, the conversion speed may depend on your internet connection and the size of the files being converted.

However, instead of importing your photos as HEIC and then converting them on your PC, you should be able to import them directly as JPG (having the phone convert them upon transfer). For this, change the settings on the iPhone. I have it in French but in English the option in the camera settings should be named something like "Transfer to Mac or PC" and then a choice between Original file (=HEIC) and Automatic (=HEIC when transferring to a Mac and JPG in other cases).

So, I recently got myself one of those fancy new iPhones, and it comes with this nifty HEIC photo format. It's all cool for saving space, but when it comes to sharing pics with friends who aren't on Team Apple, well, that's a bit of a pickle.

1. The main reason I got this software was to convert my HEIC photos to JPEG. All I had to do was drag and drop the HEIC files into the program, select the output format (JPEG, in my case), and click the "Convert" button. It was that simple. I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly the software converted my photos. Even when dealing with a batch of images, it didn't take long at all. This was a huge time-saver for me.

I'd definitely recommend giving TunesBro HEIC Converter a try, it solved the compatibility issue I had with HEIC photos and made sharing images a breeze. Plus, the software was so user-friendly that I didn't feel like I needed to be a tech guru to use it effectively.

Certainly! I also used TunesBro HEIC Converter to change lots of .heic image to PNG, it saved the day when I found myself stuck with HEIC format photos on my iPhone, causing compatibility headaches with non-Apple devices. Its hassle-free installation and user-friendly interface made converting HEIC to JPEG a breeze, preserving image quality while delivering lightning-fast results.

@HolawayStay away from TunesBro HEIC Converter. It works fine if you are converting a couple dozen photos, but I needed to convert a couple thousand. You can't convert more than around 80 without the application locking up. There is a terrible memory leak so have each tiny batch of conversion, you have to restart the application because it never releases memory. Poorly written and not user friendly at all.

At first glance, Path to current desktop backgrounds in Windows 10?, although not exactly a duplicate, appeared to have the path I wanted. But when I went there, the pre-login image was there, but the lock-screen image was not. (And contrary to the claim in that answer, the files there did have extensions.)

UPDATE: I just did a lockscreen, and got an image that IS in that directory, but earlier today, it was consistently an image of an interesting footbridge that is not in that directory.

The images are hidden deep, so you will need to change settings before you can view them. To do this, open File Explorer and go to the View tab. On the far right is an Options button, click it.

In this directory you will see a bunch of files without extensions. These are the incognito image files. These are jpeg images of various resolutions to meet the needs of multiple devices screen sizes. You can copy the files to another location and rename them to have the jpeg extension, then you can open them with your default image viewer.

In addition to the answer(s) given, I'd like to provide you with a script that instantly copies and renames the file to *.jpg. If you change the view to medium icons or to large icons, then you can instantly see the pictures when you run the script (let's name it LikeWhatYouSee.cmd):

The pictures are saved to the subdirectory Saved Pictures in your user profile's Pictures folder. You can run the script multiple times without harm, the pictures have unique filenames. Over time, you will get a lot of nice pictures in that folder. The pictures will not be removed from there, unless you delete them manually.

Note: You might have noticed that the script above copies all images. Sometimes there are also icons included in the Windows content delivery folder, which you don't want to copy. One simple way is to limit the size and copy only larger files.

This location does not only contain the desktop wallpapers, but also icons, wallpapers in portrait format and other files. All files do not have file extensions, so you cannot view them by double clicking or having a preview.

Microsoft-hosted agents are only available with Azure DevOps Services, which is hosted in the cloud. You cannot use Microsoft-hosted agents or the Azure Pipelines agent pool with on-premises TFS or Azure DevOps Server. With these on-premises versions, you must use self-hosted agents.

If your pipelines are in Azure Pipelines, then you've got a convenient option to run your jobs using a Microsoft-hosted agent. With Microsoft-hosted agents, maintenance and upgrades are taken care of for you. You always get the latest version of the VM image you specify in your pipeline. Each time you run a pipeline, you get a fresh virtual machine for each job in the pipeline. The virtual machine is discarded after one job (which means any change that a job makes to the virtual machine file system, such as checking out code, will be unavailable to the next job). Microsoft-hosted agents can run jobs directly on the VM or in a container.

The default agent image for classic build pipelines is windows-2019, and the default agent image for YAML build pipelines is ubuntu-latest. For more information, see Designate a pool in your pipeline.

You can see the installed software for each hosted agent by choosing the Included Software link in the table. When using macOS images, you can manually select from tool versions. Read more.

macOS capacity is currently limited. Unlike Linux and Windows images, where our capacity is restrained by Azure's all up capacity, macOS capacity is constrained by the amount of hardware we have available. While we are working to make additional capacity available over Spring 2024, some jobs may experience delayed execution.Wherever possible, e.g. for jobs that do not create Apple ecosystem apps, customers should choose Linux or Windows images.

The Azure Pipelines hosted pool replaces the previous hosted pools that had names that mapped to the corresponding images. Any jobs you had in the previous hosted pools are automatically redirected to the correct image in the new Azure Pipelines hosted pool. In some circumstances, you may still see the old pool names, but behind the scenes the hosted jobs are run using the Azure Pipelines pool. For more information about this update, see the Single hosted pool release notes from the July 1 2019 - Sprint 154 release notes.

To request additional software to be installed on Microsoft-hosted agents, don't create a feedback request on this document or open a support ticket. Instead, open an issue on our repository, where we manage the scripts to generate various images.

To identify pipelines that are using a deprecated image, browse to the following location in your organization: organization/project/_settings/agentqueues, and filter on the image name to check. The following example checks the vs2017-win2016 image.

The specification of a pool can be done at multiple levels in a YAML file.If you notice that your pipeline is not running on the expected image, make sure that you verify the pool specification at the pipeline, stage, and job levels.

The specification of a pool can be done at multiple levels in a classic build pipeline - for the whole pipeline, or for each job. If you notice that your pipeline is not running on the expected image, make sure that you verify the pool specification at all levels.

When you use a Microsoft-hosted agent, always use variablesto refer to the build environment and agent resources. For example, don'thard-code the drive letter or folder that contains the repository. The preciselayout of the hosted agents is subject to change without warning.
