No real help with an unknown file. But you should know that there are many encryption programs that will scramble files. Also, just assigning .jpg as a file extension doesn't make it a .jpg file. One way to hide a file is to just change the file extension. If you know which one it is, it's pretty secure.

If I was doing it, (looking in an unknown hard drive) I would try every graphic program at my disposal and see what works......or doesn't.

For instance the free, open source GIMP program is very robust. Also you could google "free graphics software" and there are some very good ones usable for free.

Wish I could help more.
