Find by default for folders in windows XP.

A change has been made to my computer and I need to get back to default but cannot locate.  When I open a folder, it opens another window and shows as a research fellow.  I want to be able to double-click a file and immediately see the content; Instead, another window opens.  When this window opens, he mentions the name of the folder under the glance at: (as if I wanted to look for a file); and when I click on search the content of the file appears.  This happens with folders My Documents, my pictures folders. everything you can imagine.   How can I return to the default setting?  I thought about a system restore, but prefer not to do.  I went to the event view/log and cannot locate.  There must be an easier way to find solutions to return to default functionality.  If you have a solution, please do not assume I know phrases or shortened computer talk.  I need a description of where to find and what to do with it.  (I know what I would do with it...) Thanks for any help you can give a model of the computer.

I found the answer to my question.  Gypsy

  • How to put pictures as program default for import in Windows 8?

    I asked this already in the Photo Gallery section, but we ask here in the Windows 8 forums instead.  She is probably right that this is not a feature of the program, but the OS, so I should ask here.  Here's the question:

    The default for importing photos and videos option in Windows 8 is the "Photos" application  However, I also installed Photo Gallery and Movie Maker, which are part of the Windows Essentials pack and I would like to make photo library, the default program to handle the import pictures and videos.  I love the way this library allows you to event type names and then group photos and videos automatically in folders based on date taken.

    On my Windows 7 machine, it was simple enough to choose just photo library as default program for action "import pictures and videos".  But in Windows 8, the process is a bit more confusing.  Moreover, I am technically savvy, so this should not be complicated, but I have to just miss a step.

    I realized that I can go to the control panel > AutoPlay (or I can also open the Photo Gallery and go to file > Options > import > choose default AutoPlay options).  Under 'Storage of camera' I expect to see the option that you want, but I did not.

    What I see as choice are things like:

    • See photos (Photo Gallery)
    • Copy pictures to your computer (Picasa 3)
    • Download images (Adobe Bridge CS6)
    • Import pictures and videos (pictures)

    But there's No option "Import pictures and videos (Photo Gallery)".

    I've read elsewhere that I might need to change the association of image file to point to the photo gallery.  But the thing is, I don't want to click on the photos and videos and to open the photo gallery.  In other words, I don't want my default viewer Photo Gallery (I want it to be the Picasa Viewer), but I don't want it to be my default importer.

    I also realize that I always open the Photo Gallery and then choose Import, but which does not have my desire to have a work of AutoPlay for importation.  Once again, it was simple in Windows 7; so, what should I do in Windows 8 for the pictures my default program for importing photos and videos while keeping another program as my default photo display?

    Additional information:

    64-bit Windows 8

    Photo Gallery 2012 (16.4.3508.205)

    Dell XPS 8500 i7 / Radeon 7770 GPU

    Well, I don't know which of the problem resolved following registry entries, but I now have the ability to import videos and photos with photo gallery.  These steps assume that you have already installed the latest photo gallery and Movie Maker, which is owned by Windows Essentials.  It also assumes that you are running a 64-bit version of Windows 8.

    If someone wants to try this, first backup your registry.

    Start by registering WLXPhotoAcq.dll and WLXPhotoViewer.dll.

    Open a CMD prompt in Admin mode.  Now, type the following:

    c:

    CD "\Program Files (x 86) \Windows Live\Photo Gallery.

    regsvr32 WLXPhotoAcq.dll

    regsvr32 WLXPhotoViewer.dll

    You should get a dialog box after each call regsvr32 confirming that the registration was successful.

    Now, copy these lines into Notepad and save it as a file with a .reg (e.g. PhotoGalleryImport.reg).  Then, double-click the file. When you are prompted, allow update the registry.

    How can I change my default settings so that Windows Explorer, downloads, etc., all open to the folder I chose instead of "libraries.

    Here is an article on how to change this folder opens when you click on an icon in Windows Explorer:http://www.watchingthenet.com/how-to-change-windows-explorer-icon-to-open-a-diffierent-folder-in-windows-xp-and-vista.html.  I think this will do the trick. Otherwise, maybe the following can help (but I think that's the answer you're looking for).

    Here's how to change the default template for a folder:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/70819-windows-explorer-folder-view-settings.html.  Default behavior is to select the model based on the first type of file placed in the folder (you must choose something).  Vista sets thefolder type template according to what are the types of files in the window and the settings display window Explorer. This will show you how to resetthe Windows Explorer folder view settings, disable Automatic folder Type discovery and increase theview of the folder cache to have Vista don't forget display settings, model of file type, size, or position of a specific window for when it was still closed to the location of specific path.  Keep in mind that it works, just a generic and holistic - it will not work for individual folders by folder.  That cannot be done in Vista.  But you can create shortcuts to the folders that you want and add to the desktop or right-click

    It does not work with the Sub record under, Open with,open in a new tab (Internet Explorer), etc... dialog windows of type through the goodFile menu bar item. These don't seem to be able to have their size or their position to recall. For the latter, you can use the free programhttp://autosizer.en.softonic.com/to resize them.
