I installed PMView on WinXP Pro and set it as default viewer for all recognized file types, but WinXP still insists on using its image viewer as default instead of PMView. What to do?

Greetings:
In response to this problem, I've written a VERY small program (16k) that restores all associations to PMView. I've only tested it with NT 4.0. I'd be interested to see if it worked under 9x/2000/XP. http://users.nac.net/fctr/PMView/resetassoc.exe IE users can "Run Program From This Location" while Opera and Netscape/Mozilla users will have to save the file somewhere (your desktop is a good place) and then run it. It's a free program which requires NO install or support DLLs. One note, though. You MUST have PMView installed before running the program, or it will mess up current file associations. -=> Andrew Burns http://users.nac.net/fctr Please check out our freeware/shareware available! |
