Windows Picture and Fax Viewer

[NoCalTom]

My face is red to have to ask such a dumb question, but
here goes: what is the executable program location that
opens the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer? When I
downloaded new image editing software recently, the
association between the left mouse click and the viewer
was changed, and I get a "Program not Found" window. The
window gives me a chance to browse for the viewer
program, but I can't find it. I know, I know, I can
right click, select "open with" and click on the "Windows
Picture and Fax Viewer," but that is too many clicks for
intensive image viewing. If you can help, I'd be finger-
savingly grateful. Tom
