Changing Default Photo Editor

[robert issacs]

Windows Picture and Fax viewer opens Paint when I try to edit a photo. How
do I change this? I know it can be done, because my machine at work opens a
different program.

Thanks, Bob

Hi Robert,

You can do it by doing the following:

Right click a picture and select Open With -> Choose Program.
Choose the program you want to use to open pictures with.
Make sure you check the box that says "Always use this program".
From that point it should open all pictures w/ that extention in that
program. You will need to do it for each picture file extention (jpg, bmp,
png, gif, etc)

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
