File association

Ray

On my notebook computer running Windows XP Pro, when I log on admin account,
I double click the jpg file and the photo is open in photo editor
automatically. When I log on a power user account, I double click the same
jpg file and the computer says no application program is associated with
this file.

Normally I can fix it with Admin account as follows. Right click the
file... choose Open With. Choose from the available options or browse to
find the one you want if it is not already listed. Put a check mark before
"always use this program for this type file". However, this feature is
greyed in power user account. Can someone tell me how to fix it for the
power user account.

Thanks,

Ray

This works for all users:
My computer -> Tools -> Folder Options -> File Types -> JPG(JPEG) ->
Change -> Select your desired program
