A little annoyed at myself >> and maybe Microsoft
Help if you would please. .....
Recently reinstalled XP-Home (degeneration for whatever reason led to this decision). All was fine - for a few months. Menwhile, the Reminder at lower-right to install SP-2 showed itself. Did so. Now maybe sorry. JPG viewer that I could leaf through images with is gone. Now when a jpg image in a file of same is clicked, the EDITOR only appears. Only filmstrip mode allows leafing through images. Where did the original Microsoft imager/viewer go?? Also, Control Panel's ADD/REMOVE no longer works! Can I revert to SP-1? Or is this foolish? Will reinstalling XP-Home (again) revert to SP-1 anyway?? Kind Regards, and Thank You! Wayne

To get Windows Picture and Fax viewer re-associated with JPG images go to
tools menu from windows explorer (or My Computer) Folder options File Types tab. Scroll down to JPEG and highlight. In the Details section, select Change. Select Windows Picture and Fax Viewer from the list. Do the same for JPG File. "Wayne G. Dengel" wrote in message news:ipqpe.10078$KQ2.6909@trnddc08... Fixed that!

Thank You Johnny_1. Kind of dumb of me not to realize . . . . figured
(incorrectly) that SP-2 made the change - maybe it did! Now back to where I wanted it. Kind Regards, Wayne "Johnny_1" wrote in message ...

In continuation . . . changed association of JPG to Windows Picture & Fax
viewer. However, to edit an image, the "original" setting allowed Microsoft's EDITOR to be opened (Ctl E). Now, this function reverts to PAINT. How do I keep the originally selected Picture & Fax Viewer in place and at the same open MS's Editor when needed (and not paint)? Regards, Wayne "Wayne G.
