I have recently had problems with Email JPG attachments, sometimes when I
try
to open them I get Notepad text, the only way to view them is to save to
harddisc, right click, use open with and select Windows Picture and Fax
Viewer. I have even selected always use this for this type of file. If I go
to properties of the file it says Jpg File Opens with Unknown application,
when I try Change and select Windows Picture and Fax Viewer It doesn't
change. All of my Jpg files have the Notepad Icon.
Can anyone help?
