.wld would work as well.

Thanks for that Ronny. Changing that file extension is easy enough.

The world file must have the suffix jgw and not jpw.
a .png needs .pgw
a .pdf needs .pgw TBC converts a PDF into a PNG
a .tif needs .tfw
a .bmp needs .bpw
it's always the last two characters that need to be gw
I assume the first and last character of the original suffix plus a "w"
probably following the list from Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_file

Access seems to support at least JPG, PNG, BMP and TIF
TBC at least JPG, GIF, PNG, BMP and TIF
in both cases the TIF doesn't support rotation.

Tested it in the 2022.11 simulator and TBC 5.81, works for me with a JPG I'd referenced, exported and reimported. I also tried with the ending JPEG, as in your screenshot, works as well.
That the worldfile isn't visible in the "select file browse window" is normal. It just needs to be there, in the same folder, and must have the exact same name before the jpg/jgw.
Can you upload the files you've trouble with.

2022.11 ACCESS & 5.81 TBC
TBC wants me to manually georeference the image and does not recognize the world file.
I can browse to the image in ACCESS, but when I click the image it does not show up in the map files. I figure that's because it is not geolocated, but it doesn't see my world file either.

Which version are you using?
I have no problems using them in TBC or Access.

Does TBC and ACCESS not support world files?
Does ACCESS not recognize JPG files at all?
If so how to I get the files to load in either program?
