When I right-click on a GIF image (or mp4 file--that's another example) and
select "Open With," QuickTime Player appears twice! Listed as choices are
Internet Explorer, QuickTime Player, Paint, MS Digital Image Suite, QuickTime
Player (again!), Windows Picture and Fax Viewer, and Jasc Paint Shop Photo
Album 5. What could be wrong, and how can I fix it? Thanks and Happy New
Year.
 
If QuickTime is the default in both cases, simply open QT and deselect these
file types, as applicable. You'll find this option in the Preferences section.
 
QuickTime was not the default, nor was GIF selected as a file type.
However...I was finally able to get rid of the "extra" QuickTime by simply
uninstalling the program, then reinstalling it from the Apple web site.
Thanks David!
