.mix file extension

[jrdgeog]

I have a picture that, for some reason, has a .mix file extension. When I
select the image to view/open it, it opens up a ton of pictures, none of
which are the one on the thumbnail. Anyone have any ideas?

I have a picture that, for some reason, has a .mix file extension. No idea how that happened. When I

which are the one on the thumbnail. That happens to be the one I'm looking for and I'm hoping it's not lost. I can't convert it because it's not there when I open it. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

..mix files were from Picture It!, which is no longer produced. I'm not sure
why you're getting multiple thumbnails tho.

===============================================
What program is opening the .mix file?

I'm familiar with .mix files that were created by
Microsoft PhotoDraw and/or Microsoft Picture It!.

If you open a multi-layer .mix file in a compatible
program...you will see all the objects that are
included in the file.
