Way #2: Using Online Tools
If you do not want to download a software trial version, you can consider using online CR2 to JPG Converter tools. Although uploading the RAW might take a few minutes, you won't have to carry your laptop with the installed software everywhere!
Zamzar

Zamzar is a free tool that works online, without requiring any special program to be installed. Even though it is a bit slow, the conversion is excellent, and your final JPG files will not lose out on image quality.
The best thing is that it detects many RAW formats like NEF, RAF, CR2, DNG etc., but you can convert files of only 50 MB for free. Also, using a free account here means converting only two images within twenty-four hours.
To convert images using Zamzar, upload the CR2 file, choose the output format as JPEG, and click the Convert button.
Pros:
Supports a wide range of formats
Easy-to-use interface
Free version available
Cons:
The free version has limitations
Conversion can take some time
Requires internet connection
My overall rating:
Convertio
