How to Set default programs in Windows 7

Sometimes when you install a new program like iTunes, you may have set it as the default player for some file types which you previously desired to be opened only with your preferred application. To correct this and to ensure that those specific file types are only opened with your preferred application, follow these steps:

• Go to Start menu and click on Default Programs.
• On the Default Programs window, click on “Set your default programs”.
• Choose a program/application and then click on “Choose defaults for this program”.

Select the files that you want to associate or open by default for this application (in this case, it’s Windows Media Player).

You can also change the default program associate to certain file types. Go back to the Default Programs window and click on “Associate a file type or protocol with a program”.

As you can see, the JPEG files by default opens with Windows Photo Viewer.

We’ll change it to Adobe Photoshop CS3.

• Click on the Change program… button and on the next screen,
• Select Windows Media Player.
• If Windows Media Player is not on the list, click on the Browse button to search for it.
  

Hope it helps.
