QGIS Error when clipping a raster with a shape layer



I am trying to clip a .tif file using the extent of a polygon (.shp). I am using the conventional Raster/Extraction/Clipper tool in QGIS 2.18.10. After choosing the appropriate settings, I get the following message:


ERROR 1: Attempt to create ADRG dataset with an illegal data type (Float32), only Byte supported by the format.

I am asking the exact same question as uybfi in this thread, which was marked as a duplicate for no apparent reason. The referred answer fails to address the issue. My raster is already in a supported format (Float32), and when changing the pixel depth with gdal_translate to other supported formats (e.g. Int32), I still get the this error.


Any thoughts?

Answer



The issue had to do with QGIS wrongfully inputing -of ADRG instead of -of GTiff in the command line when choosing the output file destination. Below is a screenshot of the clipper window properly set-up to successfully perform the clip operation. Thanks to @MichaelStimon for resolving this.
