Photo viewer

[speedy_mike]

In the past, when I clicked on a .jpg file a microsoft (I think) viewer
would show me the photo. I recently had to reload all software and now a
third party software is doing it. I want to go back to the microsoft ... or
have the ability to change the default photo viewer. How can I do that?

Thanks much!

Sounds like you were using the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer. Right click
on a .jpg and Open With | Choose Program. Find and choose the program that
you want, (Windows Picture and Fax Viewer?), and then check the box: Always
use this program to open this kind of file. This should make that program
the default.
