re: Question about 'How do I turn off the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer as my default image viewer?' Wednesday, December 3, 2003 at 9:06 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by mcw (2 messages posted) Adam, I've checked under tools/files/and all my graphics files are properly distributed to my preferred files but windows pictureviewer opens them anyway; I've also tried the registry suggestions and I get a "couldn't find" message. Having tried both these suggestions, I'm REALLY getting a bit distressed. This is the most annoying of the xp annoyances yet found. I got this computer 3 days ago and have been working on it steadily to try to make it a useful tool with xp running; I bought it for the HT ability with images especially, and I can't even open an image in (any of) my graphics programs. I'm working on a graphic I have on my desktop -- a screenshot of my old computer's desktop, so I can get all the programs I want on the desktop -- and even though the icon is an ACDSee icon, it opens in the darned windows viewer!!!!!!!!
