Hello,

How do I change my settings so that Adobe Reader is NOT the default application used when downloading a JPEG image? Everytime is save a JPEG, it automatically opens Abode Reader which does not support that file type. I'd like to be able to open the image in my Photo Gallery.

Thanks,

Hi.

Right click on ANY .jpg picture and select "Properties"

Under the "General" tab (which should be what is opened up first), you'll see

"Opens with: Adobe Reader"

To the right, click "Change" and select "Windows photo gallery"

Good luck.
