15" 2017 MacBook Pro MacOs 13.7.8
I am getting this message when I try and open some jpegs. I have checked the permissions and they are all set to read & write including the folders they are in. What to do?

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 13.7
what App do you normally use to read jpegs?
I suggest you open that App and try to open one of those files from its File > Open dialog
-------
The thinking behind this is that if jpeg is unmapped, or mapped to an App for with you do not have proper permissions, that error message might be complaining about part of the App, not about the data file.

re: < "open some jpegs" >
13.7.8 High Sierra.... 2017-2020 for reference only:
hard to speculate the origin of these jpg's —old issue, new issue, what changed? Obviously not your macOS.
These are your jpg's or a different source it is unclear?
They use to open and now they do not open is unclear?
—As a test you can try duplicating the image and compare that file...(?)
—you can try changing .jpeg to .jpg and compare your result...(?)
