• in your example converting between image formats is a duplicate here [Image Resizer] Offer option to encode images to another format (image converter) #2686.
• Converting between audio/video files is a duplicate here [Feature Request] Media converter with ffmpg #3442.
• Converting programs between different executable/installer types is risky and fragile.

It is a good idea, just already captured by some other users. Check out this list of common issues if you have more ideas you can see if anyone else has already suggested it and you can +👍 their issue.

Will executable files be corrupted if we change their extension?

Example: .exe to .msi.

Changing the extension shouldn't change the file. You can try, but changing the extension does not change what the installer is and how it works.
