How can I export the embedded jpg out of a cr3-file?

In the "Export/Import" Menu there is the item "Extract preview image from selected" and then "CR2/DNG files".

If I use this the software says:
    0 output files created
No file with specified extension
<-END-

This is correct, but how can I say, that the extention is "CR3"?

It's important to point out that, as per the Sticky Thread in this sub-forum, the exiftool GUI is no longer supported by it's author.

I can point you to the example command that will extract all preview images when used on the command line.  To limit that command to just CR3 files, you would just add -ext cr3.
"It didn't work" isn't helpful. What was the exact command used and the output.
Read FAQ #3 and use that cmd
Please use the Code button for exiftool output

Please include your OS/Exiftool version/filetype

Thank you, I gave it a try:

exiftool -b -JpgFromRaw -w _CR3.JPG -ext CR3 -r .

But I thought it would have been easier via the gui and an command within.

or use jexiftoolgui and from the menu "Other -> Export all previews/thumbs from selected"
See my jExifToolGUI cross-platform java application (Website, Releases, Changelog) for Phil's marvelous exiftool.

Hello
... or use Metadata++ (Windows only), right-click the file and select Export Thumbnail
