    Thanks for the request! An .aae file isn't a picture: it's a small text file where Apple's Photos app keeps the edits made to a photo (crop, filters, Portrait effects). It sits next to the original photo, and there's no image inside it (see #353).

    Convert the photo file next to it instead. HEIC/HEIF, JPG and RAW .dng are all supported. The edits stored in the .aae aren't applied: Filee converts the photo as it was taken.

    Closing this one, since .aae has no picture to convert.
