Restoring Windows Picture And Fax Viewer as Default?!

[Guest]

Ever since installing Kodak EasyShare software on the pc it's set itself as
default for all images. How can I restore Windows Picture and Fax Viewer as
default. Would it have to be done via Kodak EasyShare or somewhere within
windows?
Cheers

I dunno whether i'm making a mistake here or not but all the values in the
registry are identical to the ones provided on that site

Right click on an image file(.jpg). select "Open With" and then select
"Choose Program..." Select "Windows Picture and Fax Viewer" then check the
box which says "Always use the selected Program......"

Check within the options/preferences/settings of the Kodak software for
options that make it the default program. Quite often, these must be undone
before the default program can be reset.
