Guest RJK Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Is it possible to change the XP "default" filetype icon back to the Photoshop icon, after Corel Photopaint changed the association to the Corel "icon" ago ? I've tried the "Open With" and checked "always open this type of file with this program (Adobe Photoshop)" - and that works but, when I use Windows Explorer to list file "details" listing, ...they all have that darned "Corel" icon. ....and whilst rummaging in Windows Explorer | Tools | Folder Options | File Types | ...and scrolling down and selecting the *.jpg filetype | ...shows "Details for 'jpg' extension" Opens with Adobe Photoshop You have customized files with extension 'JPG' To restore these files to their default type (COREL Photopaint 10.0 Image - click Restore). HOW and WHERE do I change the default type back to Adobe Photoshop ? ...i.e. I have Googled substantially but can't find a satisfactory answer ? TIA, regards, Richard
Guest Ron Badour Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Re: file type fight !! On the files type list, highlight .jpg and click restore. If that doesn't give you the icon you want, click advanced and click the change icon button. If this doesn't sort it out, you may have to uninstall and reinstall Adobe. -- Regards Ron Badour MS MVP Shell User "RJK" <nospam@hotmail.com> wrote in message news:OObFThB4IHA.1196@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... > Is it possible to change the XP "default" filetype icon back to the > Photoshop icon, after Corel Photopaint changed the association to the > Corel "icon" ago ? > > I've tried the "Open With" and checked "always open this type of file with > this program (Adobe Photoshop)" - and that works but, when I use Windows > Explorer to list file "details" listing, ...they all have that darned > "Corel" icon. > > ...and whilst rummaging in Windows Explorer | Tools | Folder Options | > File Types | ...and scrolling down and selecting the *.jpg filetype | > ...shows > > "Details for 'jpg' extension" > Opens with Adobe Photoshop > You have customized files with extension 'JPG' To restore these files to > their default type (COREL Photopaint 10.0 Image - click Restore). > > HOW and WHERE do I change the default type back to Adobe Photoshop ? > > ...i.e. I have Googled substantially but can't find a satisfactory answer > ? > > TIA, > > regards, Richard >
