    The .cos file is an image settings file that Capture One produces to store any adjustments to the image. I presume that you are getting the .jpg file as well. Whenever you even look at a folder with images in it using Capture One, it creates these in a subfolder.

    Thank you, Ian

    Yes, it exports the .jpg. How do I not get that Capture One folder on export?

    As Ian has said you will get the "edit" files if you open the jpg files within C1.

    I have jpgs set to a different default viewer application (using Windows) partly to avoid that and partly because I think of it as a quick check for how the images would be seen in a browser, etc. Just in case something strange might happen from time to time.

    Plus the viewer I use is fast and portable to some quite low spec hardware that I take when travelling light.

    I'm curious Grant, which viewer are you using?

    The Window 'Photos' image viewer isn't color managed as far as I can tell so I don't trust it, and I've used a few others that get me by, but I don't love them for what ever reason. I've got used to mac's built in preview, just press the space bar and a color correct image preview pops up. Haven't found anything like that for windows.

    Faststone - portable version for Windows so I can run it from a memory stick if I need to.

    I still use Windows 7 though. I assume there is a version for Win 10 for those that have it.

    I haven't tried that one.
    I'll check it out.

    Thank you!
