Hi,

When I right click on an image file and select "Edit" it opens the file in Paint and I was wondering how I go about changing that to open "Photoshop" instead.

Thanks
Bruce

"Edit" and "open with" are different functions. If you wish to change the edit program you need to make a registry change. You can do this manually or there are utility programs available to do it for you. There is a good guide to the options here:

Thanks!! That program at Link Removed was for Window XP, but there was instructions to do it manually.
