I previously installed PMView2000 then recently installed Paint Shop Pro 7. Now, most of my graphic files are associated with Paint Shop Pro. How do I re-associate the default file types back to PMView?

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.

Once again, in response to this problem, I've updated a VERY small program (21k) that selectively restores all associations to PMView. I've only tested it with XP, but I'm sure it works under 9x/2000/NT.

FWIW, PMView v3.12 automatically detects if an association is missing and will ask the user if he wants the association restored or removed.

Thanks,
