  • How to change the default program for opening images

    I have several Versions of Photoshop element installed, but when I click on an image to open it, it is automatically defaulted to PSE3.  How can I change this so PSE8 is the default value?

    Well, I might suggest that you uninstall the older versions of PSE, but if you do not want to...

    1. Right-click on an image file
    2. Select open with >
    3. Select Choose program
    4. Click the Browse button
    5. Navigate to the executable file for PSE8 (probably something like C:\Program Adobe Photoshop Elements 8\PhotoshopElements.exe), and then click Open
    6. Back to screen 'Open with', check the box "Always use the selected program to open this type of file"
    7. Click OK
  • How to change the default program installation directory?

    It is everywhere on the internet how to change registry so windows will install my D instead of C drive

    my C is full and where windows is installed. my D is empty. (why the manufactures don't partitions this way, idiots)

    but there's this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933700

    Microsoft does not support changing the location of the Program Files folder by modifying the ProgramFilesDir registry value. If you change the location of the Program Files folder, you may experience problems with some Microsoft programs or with some software updates.

    so I guess my question is stupid: I can change the dfault to D? If not, is it OK to cross partitions? can you please also tell me the command move?

    Thank you

    Most of the programs will allow you to do a custom Setup and change the location of the Program Files folder. Just be careful during installation. We'll always some files on the system (usually c :)) drive. For programs that are already installed in C: to D:, to add or remove programs, uninstall them and reinstall them.

  • How to change the default CC bridge is to open the images in CC PS?

    Bridge CC by default to open images is PS CS6, how to change the default for PS CC?

    By default installation PSCC and bridge all file types associations should automatically apply the most recent PS (in the case of CC).

    You can first try to restart the bridge by pressing option (mac) or control (win) key and choose Reset Preferences.

    Check again.

    If not hopefully open the Bridge preferences and locate the section file type Associations and choose PSCC manually from the list of the type of file you want to open in.

  • Cannot change the default program

    1 HP Pavilion dv6

    2 Windows 7

    3. "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You can not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

    4. Windows update itself

    5. I was always able to change the default program, until Windows has created an another update (which still live with my settings).

    When I right click > Open with > choose by default the program give me this vague and frustrating error message indicating 'Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You can not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

    This is a load of ponyfeathers, because I am the only user and administrator of my laptop. I tried also to the solutions, but the error is apparently used in multiple areas of screw - rises of Windows. This error applies to all files.

    I am still able to go to administrative tools and change the defaults from there, but I'm not THAT tech savvy and I don't like playing with the pieces dark and deep programming from my laptop.

  • How to change the default (Windows 7) painting 'Save as type' JPG (from PNG) format when recording using the * only * the keyboard?

    This is the 2nd time this same question, the 1st time that I was given an irrelevant answer which was not helpful at all. Please take the time to read and understand what I need to before you answer.

    I just need to learn how to change the default PNG to JPG, so every time I save a screenshot using (only) the keyboard, it will already be showing JPG as the "Save as type". I am sure that it requires an edit registry so just point me in the right direction and guide me on how to do it, that's all I need.

    To help you understand my dilemma, I take a lot of screenshots and Ctrl + V paste in Paint almost daily. Since my physical disability in my arms causing me pain and discomfort when I use the mouse, I avoid using the mouse I use the shortcuts as much as possible to help reduce the constant pain, I'm still in my right arm when using the mouse. I hope I have explained well enough details.

    If it's in the wrong place, please move to a better place.

    Thank you

    I don't know of any registry value, but you can use the key sequence to "Save as jpg.

    ALT

    F

    V

    J

    The F key may be pressed simultaneously with the ALT key or after him.

    You can reduce the number of keys to just ALT plus a digital key by using the following, adapted from one method described HERE.   Setup is much easier with a mouse, but can be done using the keyboard only.  I showed you the controls and mouse shortcuts keyboard to add an icon "" Save as JPG"to the Quick Access toolbar.

    Open Paint

    Mouse Keyboard equivalent
    Click on the file Menu (upper-left) Press ALT + F to open the file Menu
    Hover mouse on ' Save as ' to open the list of file types Press V to view the list of file types
    Right click on JPG to open the context menu Use the TAB or down arrow key to select JPG and then press SHIFT + F10 to open the context menu
    Click "add to quick access toolbar. Press A to "add to the Quick Access toolbar.

    At this point, your installation is complete.

    With open Paint, press the ALT key .  This will display the keys associated with various actions.  In my case, "" Save as JPG"icon that has been added to the Quick Access toolbar was the fifth icon (after save, undo, redo and print).  So, to "Save as JPG," I would press ALT+5 (even once, you can press 5 either with or after you press the ALT key).

  • How to change the default save to C: disk / d: /.

    I saw the article about how to change the default value.  I only did this and is installed by default on the D drive, but the computer still records in two drives and does not record on 'my documents', but saves just 'documents '.  When I click on the file I save it says it is registered in two places.  When I click on the two places, it shows that the default is now D: which is what I want.  I don't want for the file to be saved in two places.  Is there a way to save only on D: and eliminate the duplicate record on C: not safe if possible... help will be appreciated.  Thank you.

    Westley

    When you say c: documents and D:Documents, can provide you the full path you are viewing?

    The real essentials you need to know is that libraries are not records.  They are really just a quick search of several places.  Try this: right click on the document library and select Properties.  This will tell you where the library is looking.  Whenever you open the document library, it performs an instant analysis of these places and tells you what he found.  Is not additional copies files, it's just search results. If you delete something, you remove the one and only original, everywhere where it is.

    You might ask "well, what's the point of a library?  I'm glad you (perhaps) asked.  The reason is you have a lot of places.  Take me for example.  I have some movies on my hard drive.  I have more moves on an extra drive (they will all take place on the main drive).  In addition, my roommate has a few movies on his drive.  With a library, I have a library of videos that research on all drives and gives me a single view combined all our movies instantly.  Now I can see all my films in my library at the same time, no matter which disc they are on.

  • How to change the default value of MS Paint record - an output to jpg for shortcuts KEYBOARD: Alt-F-A (or S)?

    I've seen a lot of posts on this subject here, but they are all on the use of the mouse and I did not yet find one with an answer to MY specific dilemma.

    I take screenshots and edit photos (Nothing fancy) almost every day. Given that my physical disability in my arms causing me pain and discomfort when I use the mouse, I need to use several shortcuts as humanly possible help reduce the constant pain, I'm still in my right arm using the mouse.

    I *need* to know how to change the default hotkey Alt-F-A (or S) to save it as a JPG file relative to the current default value PNG which I use never, never. If it requires editing the registry, no problem, just point me in the right direction and guide me on how to do it.
