You can reset graphic files to the defaults:

Go to Start | Run

Regedit

and then navigate to the keys for jpg and jpeg.

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.jpg

Under this key should be a

(Default) "jpegfile"
Content Type "image/jpeg"

Do the same for jpeg and also for

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.gif

(Default) "giffile"
Content Type "image/gif"

I have recently installed IE7 and it works OK. But it appears that it MAY
have caused my OE6 not to link to my graphics software - MS Photodraw V2
or
MS Photo Editor. Until the last few weeks, I never had a problem opening
any
graphics attachment. I now get the message 'This file does not have a
program
associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in
the
Folders Option Control Panel'. I go to the FOCP and select - gif, jpg,
etc.
Make the selection, Tten I process the graphics again and the same thing
happens.

Don't know what to do. Appreciate any help.
