About THM files

1

THM is a JPEG with a different extension

A .thm file is a small JPEG thumbnail cameras save next to a photo or video so devices can preview it quickly. Its contents are identical to a JPG — only the extension differs.

2

Nothing needs converting to it

Because THM is created automatically by the camera, there's no use case for turning a PNG into one. If you have a THM, just rename or convert it to .jpg to view it.
