To associate graphics file formats with Photo Editor
When you "associate" an image file type with a program, double-clicking an image of that type automatically starts that program and loads the image. You can associate GIF, JPEG, PCD (Kodak Photo CD), PCX, PNG, TGA, TIFF, and BMP graphic file formats with Photo Editor.
Change the program that starts when you open a file:
Many file types in Windows are registered to be opened by a particular program. For example, Paint starts when you double-click a BMP file. You can change which program starts when you open a file.
- In My Computer or Windows Explorer, click Options on the View menu.
- Click the File Types tab.
- In the Registered file types box, click the one you want to change.
- Click Edit.
- In the Actions box, click open.
- Click Edit.
- In the Application used to perform action box, type the path to the program you want to use to open files of the selected file type. Or click Browse to select the path from a folder list.
