You don't always need a "converter" for everything.

Just open the jpg image in paint and then "Save as" in tiff format. Simple! :)

tiff is typically a lossless format while jpg is lossy format.it is like saving a mp3(typical size 3-5mb) to a .wav file(standard for audio cd typical size ~50mb).there will always be size increase in such conversions.

for only store in my Hard disk with lossless quality

It's like saying stretching a child's clothes to fit a grown up man. :|

You can reduce the quality of any format to some other format, but vice versa is just not possible.

you can not increase quality by converting from a lossy(jpg) to lossless format(tiff).information lost during conversion can not be regained by converting back.

Who told you quality will loss?
you will only waste hdd space after converting to tiff as jpg is lossy. Format only matter only at source.

How will the quality of a file change when you are not "editing it"?

It won't.

However, if you will open up the JPEG file in an image EDITOR, not a viewer, and if you will keep on saving as JPEG again and again for like 100 times, then the quality will decrease. But again you are "editing" it. Viewing is just a reading activity.
