Hi

Trying to find a script batch file/vbs to run during login to make the MS picture manager as the default picture view rather than the fax view, can anyone help, I have tried google search already but couldn't find anything.

thanks

You should be able to run a .reg file I'd think maybe.

From a sales pitch site.
"
Normally, to manage extensions and their associations you would have to either edit the registry or open Windows Explorer and select "Tools|Folder Options|File Types" and work within that menu structure.
But, is there any utility designed for file extension management?

Yes, a product makes that all unnecessary. The product name is Associate This by Spearit Software. Associate This is a complete manager for file types; it also monitors file types and flags any programs trying to hijack any, allowing you to reverse the change; and it adds a function to your right click menu allowing you to select the program you want to open a file type for which you have multiple programs.

Try it out from: Spearit Software"

"Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, antivirus, anti-spyware, Live CD's, backups, are in my top 10

kiwi_hk,

Open the Picture Manager, Tools, File types, check the formats you want to open
with the Picture Manager.
