I think this way is easier for me. When you can see the icon for jpg, doc or whatever you want to re-associate to a different program try this: Highlight the icon Hold down the shift key Right click on the icon Choose "open with" You will get the "open with" window, put a check in the box that says "always use this program...etc" Then browse to the program you want to use. Click OK and you are done.
