Why convert JPG to PNG?

PNG is useful when you want a clean, lossless output file for graphics, screenshots, interface images, text-heavy images or designs that should avoid extra JPG compression.

If your original JPG already lost quality, converting it to PNG will not recreate the missing detail, but it can help prevent another round of lossy compression when you save or reuse the image.
