>> Hello Gilles,

>> Honestly, I would be very surprised if this issue is during the JPG

>>
>> Is there a location where JPG files are stored or are they deleted after
>> export to google photos?
>> Is there others people who have encountered the same issue?
>>
>>
> If you confirm the issue, please report this to bugzilla.
