Quick View
I am posting this question again due to opening the file and reassoc it didnt work. Chosing open with and choosing explorer didnt work. Quick view still doesnt work...
Part1)Win98 Quick View: I loaded a trial version of Paint Shop Pro 6.0 when I didnt keep - I uninstallled it - It marked all graphic extensions as it being the editor - Now When I go into Windows Explorer and view as web page - I was able to view the file in WinExploere when I highlighted .gif or .jpg now I cant. I uninstalled quickview and reinstalled no good - It says there is no viewer for the file...
Part2 How do I go into folder options and file types and reset .gif file type (like mime setting) etc...Please HELP

Open "My Computer", select "view" from menu, go to folder options, select "File Types" tab, highlight the file type you want, select edit, and re-associate with the desired app, in this case I believe you would want to choose Internet Explorer.
For .jpg
Place check in box "Use DDE"
In window "Content type/MIME" should select-
"image/pjpeg"
In window "Application Used To Perform Action" should put -
""C:\PROGRA~1\INTERN~1\iex plore.exe" -nohome"
In window "DDE Message" should put-
""file:%1",,-1,,,,,"
In window "Application" should put-
"IExplore"
In window "Topic" should put-
"WWW_OpenURL"
These are the settings to set the default viewer back to Internet Explorer which enables you to see "thumbnail view" when browsing My Computer.
This is for JPEG files but all others should have same command parameters.
