Tif File Association Lost
Hi all
After applying windoze updates, my PC appears to have lost any reference to tif images. I can right click and open-with Picture and Fax Viewer OR Document Imaging. Does it matter which one I use, the Imaging option is a lot faster. How do I associate Document Imaging with tif documents when the PC doesn't recognise this file extension? Is this a known issue with Windows updates? TIA Phil |

Tif File Association Lost
Here is the reg hack to fix the issue associate. I created a script to push
this remotely to a list of computers: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.tif] "Content Type"="image/tiff" "PerceivedType"="image" @="MSPaper.Document" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.tif\MSPaper.Document] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.tif\MSPaper.Document\ShellNew] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.tif\OpenWithList] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.tif\OpenWithList\MSPVIEW.EXE] @="" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.tif\OpenWithProgids] "TIFImage.Document"=hex(0): Just copy and paste this in to a text file and save with a name of your choice, change the extention to .reg and your good to go.
