Many thanks. However, having read the reviews I have yet to be convinced that this is for me!

Haven't tried the codec, but the mostly excellent IrfanView claims to support HEIC/HEIF via either an open third-party codec or the MS codec(s).
Search for HEIC on this page for info and links: https://www.irfanview.com/faq.htm

Very many thanks to all for your possible solutions to file conversion problem. Too busy (!) at present, but hope to use one or more later.

I just get my wife to send her iPhone pictures to my Samsung on WhatsApp, then download from my phone to the pc. Easy, even for me.

Doesn't WhatsApp shrink everything to 1200px? Better to send full Res by email.
