Are you sure this is even supposed to be an image?
I gave-up after failing, and deleted it.
Never examined the contents more closely.
the "header", that's tipping us and some programs off that it's supposedly a .tiff, is "MM"
I'll leave it to you, then.
After what you have said, it is possible, and extremely likely, that this is definitely not an image...

The thing is, even with non-supported tags, a valid .tiff should open. However, if the tag is unrecognized by the program, the file doesn't get read/displayed quite as it is intended to be. (for example, transparency only photoshop can read) At least, I think that's how it is supposed to work. Usually programs associated with a certain file type can open a file that contains a feature they don't support. However, it may not read correctly, and writing to it might erase that data. (custom metadata in .png is a good example of this)
