Windows Forum / Windows XP / Photos / January 2008Default editor for Windows Picture and fax viewer
I have tried to change the default editor for windows picture and fax viewer according to common postings regarding this. I navigate to: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\image\shell\edit\command and I am told to change the default data to the file location for the program, in this case the navigation changed to: "C:\Program Files\Jasc Software Inc\Paint Shop Pro 9.exe" "%1" According to the instructions, this is correct however I get the following error: "Windows cannot fine '(null)'. Make sure you typed the name correctly"....etc. I am using Windows XP home sp2. What am I doing wrong? > I have tried to change the default editor for windows picture and fax > viewer according to common postings regarding this.

What am I doing > wrong? ============================= Article: Change the default image editor application, invoked from Windows Picture and Fax Viewer http://windowsxp.mvps.org/imgeditor.htm I'm not running Paint Shop Pro so cannot verify...but it sounds like you did it correctly. However...I'm wondering about the path... are you positive the executable is: Paint Shop Pro 9.exe Could it possibly be psp.exe?
