And also since uninstalling photshop now my control panel icons and MY PICTURES are not being displayed properly.Instead of the icon it like the thing you see before the icon loads up,like when you start your PC sometimes and the desktop icons are getting loaded up. I hope you understand and thank you in advance.	Guest (0)

In windows XP : Right click the file you want to open in different program - click properties - on General tab click change - click the name of the program you want the file to open in -. This change affects all the files that have the same file name extension - hence becomes the default for say all jpeg's. I don't know if this will help with the icon problem but it could - any more instructions needed post back. Hope this is what you meant!	Guest (0)
