Internet Explorer is the default viewer, hence the default icon.
Why do you say it is wrong? What do you expect instead? ....Alan -- Alan Edwards, MS MVP Windows - Internet Explorer http://dts-l.org/index.html On Sun, 30 Jul 2006 13:18:18 +0300, in microsoft.public.win98.gen_discussion, "mistral" wrote: What is the default associations and icon settings for JPG/JPEG/JPE files in Windows 98SE?

Do you or did you have Office XP installed, and also have/had the Office tool named
MS Photo Editor installed? If so, it does some wacky things to the Registry entries for GIF and JPG files. Editing the entries through Folder Options File Types dialog will not undo it; the entries must be recreated either by removing the GIF and JPG enties from File Types and then recreating them, or by merging a Registry file to do the same thing. If you will export just these keys from the Registry, to a .reg or .txt file, and email them to me, I can confirm if that is the problem: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.gif HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.jpg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\giffile HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\jpegfile Mail to: glen.vee @ gmail.com -- Glen Ventura, MS MVP Shell/User, A+ http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm "mistral" wrote in message ...

It is common for defective programming to bind all data files (of one class) to a new app: so it is convenient to know how to alter File Association (see Help file on this topic.) 2. The third-party utility distributed free from www.irfanview.com is judged by experienced users the single best all-round utility for graphic files (and some others.) Try it. -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada) |

The other MVPs are working your question; however, I wonder why you want to
use a browser to view photos when there is this excellent viewer that is free: Irfanview: A very good freeware graphics viewer: http://www.irfanview.com/ -- Regards Ron Badour, MS MVP for W98 Tips: http://home.satx.rr.com/badour Knowledge Base Info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=kbinfo "mistral" wrote in message ...

But I just wanted restore normal condition of JPEG(and possible other graphic files) files, that system have before installing these extra graphic programs:"Sierra Image Expert" and "Paint Shop Pro") . I even not used these 2 programs, but its leave traces of its bad programming. Currently I do not need something special to view images. Also, I dont process digital photo images on my PC, so I have no necessity for some special graphic software yet. thanks, mistral |

IIRC, the installation menus for these programs allow you to specify whether or not they will be the default viewers for various file types. - Franc Zabkar -- Please remove one 'i' from my address when replying by email. |
