Friends – Suddenly, when I right click a JPG and choose "preview" from the menu, CS opens and opens the file. Before this morning, clicking "preview" opened the image in Microsoft "Picture and FAX Viewer". I liked it this way. Please help me resolve this issue – Thanks, Bob

The File Association got changed, maybe when you installed CS. To change it back just right-click on any file of type jpeg and then ‘Open With’ from the menu and select "Picture and FAX Viewer" as the default program for this file type.

Also tick the box ‘always use this program to open these files’, this should keep working but may be
overridden again by photoshop when you restart windows. Try it and see.
