How to Select a Default Image Editor in Windows XP
You can change the default image editor in Microsoft Windows XP by downloading and running a small program called, Imgeditor. The program works only on Windows XP and changes the necessary Windows Registry entries for the default image editor. Once you run the program, any time you right-click an image and click "Edit," the default program opens the image ready to edit.
