Open Regedit on the server and go to:
HKLM\Software\Classes\
Find .jpg and add a key below it called OpenWithList (may already be
there), and then another key under that called ois.exe. These are all
KEYS, not VALUES, so they should all look like folders. The only values in
each key will be Default. So should look like this:
HKLM\Software\Classes\.jpg\OpenWithList\ois.exe\
HKLM\Software\Classes is the global association for every user. However,
if they have a specific association in their profile (under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes), that takes precedence. For more info,
check out M$ KB 257592.

Subject: [THIN] Changing File Associations
Can someone help me out with File Association Problem. We publish a full
desktop and have determined that our file association for .jpg files are
with MS Picture Viewer and now when users go to a web page that has jpg
files they do not see the pictures. I looked in HKEY Classes root and see
that .jpg are associated by default in there. I changed the association in
Tools, Folder Options and File View and this corrects the problem. My
question is how where do I make this change so It's a global change? HKEY
Classes ROOT or somewhere else? Any ideas?
Thanks,
