Older versions of Photoshop for Windows opened some image file types at 72ppi by default, regardless of the actual image resolution. This was more of a bug than anything else. If PS couldn't detect the resolution of the file, it defaulted to 72ppi. PS5, PS6 and PS7 did away with most of these bugs.

There's no reason to convert them. The files haven't changed. Photoshop isn't choosing a new resolution, it's opening them at the actual saved resolution.
