Windows Photo Viewer

Jul 6, 2012 11:47 AM

When I click on a jpeg or tiff thumnail, instead of opening in photoshop the thumnails open in windows picture viewer.  I am using CS6 extended on windows 7.  I first noticed this when I tried to download from creative cloud to CS6  Photo opened in Windows.  I called support (CHAT) and they couldn't help me.

    Go into Bridge, and choose Edit - Preferences - File Type Associations (Bridge - Preferences on Mac).

     

    Try setting the individual type associations you want to point them to Photoshop.  If that fails, try the [ Restore Defaults ] button.

     

    You may have to log off and on again to get preference changes to take hold.
