What is a AAE File Type?

The AAE files are created by the Photos application in iOS 8 et seq. and OS X 10.10 et seq. The files save the changes made in the application for the images so that the original images are not affected. The files are stored in the same place as the images for which they contain the editions.

When opening a JPG file edited in Photos, l' application refers to the associated AAE file for any changes applied. The AAE data is saved in XML format, meaning that it can be viewed with a text editor such as TextEdit or Notepad.

If you import images from Windows or d' an old version of d' OS X, you will probably notice these files that accompany your images. On Windows l' extension .aae can be hidden by default, but the AAE files have the same name as the JPG files for which they contain the changes. Once imported into Windows, it can be deleted without deleting the associated images.
