Weird..can't add a program to this list

31/05/11(Tue)23:25

I want to open a picture with Photoshop but it won't let me add it, even if I tick the "always use.." box. It normally should add the program in that 'Open With' quick list..but somehow it won't :S Does anyone know a solution?

Save Image View Image

header=[Image Viewer] body=[The image viewer allows you to view the image full screen. You can also use the image viewer to zoom in or out.<br/>Instructions:<br/>Once the viewer is open you will see the image adjusted to your screen size. To close the image us the X button top right or left click on the image, double left click to close in zoom mode. To use the zoom feature us the zoom button top left. In zoom mode the bottom right of your screen will show an indicator of what part of the image you can see. You can use the scroll wheel of your mouse to zoom in and out. You can click and hold the left mouse button on the image and drag it to move the viewer around the zoomed image if it is larger than the screen size. You can exit zoom mode by clicking the zoom button top left to exit it, or exit the viewer completely with a double left click.]

Hmmm, I wonder if some other software is constantly reasserting itself as the default for that file type?!?
Failing that it could be a bit of a screw up in the registry, so you could try running a registry cleaner to try and fix any problem. Failing that do a google search for how to edit the registry to force it use a certain program to open a certain file type :)
It may even be possible to find an option within photoshop to associate file types with it.
