Viewing Faxes with Fax Console

[april]

Suddenly I can't view my faxes. It says it doesn't have
a default viewer. The 'windows picture and fax viewer'
is on the computer.

Does anyone know how to tell the fax console to use the
viewer how to set up the link?

There are many causes for this problem. Most often, this problem arises
because some other imaging application that you installed has set itself as
the default viewer for TIF files. To view faxes from the Fax Console, the
Windows Imaging and Fax viewer must be your default viewer for TIF files.
You can easily restore that setting in Windows Explorer > Folder Options.
File Types. For most users the command line should read:

"rundll32.exe <drive>:\WINDOWS\system32\shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscreen %1"
