I know of one way that is pretty easy to fix it, shouldn't take too long to do it either. Just find the file on your computer (*.jpg), right mouse click, and select "Open With". Then it will bring up a list of programs. Choose the one you want, but also tick the box "always use this program... etc". That should fix it. Do it for each of the file types you want to change. Or, try and tell the program that is making the problem occur to not associate with those files.
