XYplorer Beta Club

Problem SOLVED !! After some more Googling, I happened to come accross a small utility called "File Association Fixer" . Downloaded it (it's portable so no installation needed) and just set it to fix the .jpg extension and voila! I got the "How Do You Want To Open This File" dial...

Thanks. Have checked the registry keys you suggested and they're all fine. Both .jpg and .jpeg are included in the Local Machine settings for Image Eye and the Classes Root is set as Image Eye too.

I had already done all you suggested through control panel rather than the Windows 10 settings app. I have now discovered however that the problem seems to be confined to .jpg images.

I have recently installed XYPlorer on my 64bit Windows 10 (Build 1607) machine. There seems to be a problem with the default application for viewing images. Everytime I try to open a .jpg image from within XYplorer, the "How Do You Want To Open This File" dialog opens (see screenshot). No ...
