Windows 7

joycekriger · 16 Jul 2010

I recently went from Windows XP to Windows 7. I installed my Microsoft Publisher 2007 program on the computer. I can design my documents with jpeg and save them but when I pull the document back up, the photos won't open. I keeps giving me a message about photo gallery. I don't know how to fix this? Please help

Sounds like a file association problem.

Type "file associations" into the start box and a few choices should pop up. The first one would allow you to associate jpg files with Windows Photo Viewer or any other program if that is what you want to do.

Default Programs - Associate a File Type or Protocol

or

Default Programs - Set a Program's Default Associations

You can right click on any .jpg file on your computer then select properties. You will see a change button that you can click then browse to the program you want to open those files and apply that as the picture handler for the file association.

Open With - Change Default Program
