Windows Forum / Windows XP / Photos / February 2005box "Always open with" is greyed out
I have done the following but always use the selected program is greyed out.. > Right click on one of your picture. > > Click on Open with on the opening menu. > > Click on Choose Program on the opening list. > > Click on Windows Picture and fax viewer on the opening list and check the > > box "Always open..." This is a new computer with XP I really like to view my thumbnails all at once.  SignatureDee Try a different way. Open a photo folder Click on Tools on the top bar and Folder Options Click on the File types tab. Scroll down the list and click on JPG and click the button Change. Select Window Picture and Fax viewer. The "Always..." box should already have a check in it in this window. > I have done the following but always use the selected program is greyed out.. > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > This is a new computer with XP I really like to view my thumbnails all at > once. No this did not work. I checked properities and it says TYPE OF FILE : FILE not JPG. I went back and checked on saving this photo and it came up JPG. Yet when it show up in my pictures it says file. I don't understand. > I have done the following but always use the selected program is greyed out.. > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > This is a new computer with XP I really like to view my thumbnails all at > once. Well, check this. When you open the photo file folder, change the View from Thumbnails to Details. Now look at the name of the file. You should see something like this: filename.jpg The extension .jpg should be after the file name. If you see only filename Click on Tools, Folder Options and click on the View tab. Scroll down and remove the check in the box "Hide extension for known file type" if there is one in the box. Close the folder and open it again. Do you now see .jpg after the file name or just tell me what you see for file name. > No this did not work. I checked properities and it says TYPE OF FILE : FILE > not JPG.

Thank you I got it. These where pictures that I had saved from an E mail. I had to eventually go into my imaging program and change them all to jpg. We are good now. > I have done the following but always use the selected program is greyed out.. > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > This is a new computer with XP I really like to view my thumbnails all at > once. |
