Tools - Settings - Programs - Tab External viewersĪS far as I understand this the Viewers, are for within Free Commander, and external Viewers opens the other program as a separate viewer. Tools - Settings - Programs - Tab Viewers This means you also need to use settings I don't, namely the instructions for what to open files with when clicked in the Programs section, spoecifically

Now you seem to have this set correctly, as you say everything works in explorer, but not in Free Commander.

Setting these in Windows I usually let GIMP install first as default, then override that with IrfanView, this sets things up so GIMP's image formats unsupported by Irfan View get opened by GIMP especially the default GIMP specific XCF format, while allowing quick viewing of the common images.

Since XP days I've used Irfan View as my basic image viewer (usaully JPG, PNG,GIF, plus now WebP), and GIMP has my image editing choice for just as lomg. Now I also don't want windows default image viewing/editing choices, and never have. I don't have such issues, but I use windows context menu, and thus windows controls what opens when I click on a JPG, PNG etc. Thanks in advance, and greetings from Germany. It's getting kinda frustrating at this point. If anyone has any idea what I can do with that, what might be going wrong there.I'd greatly appreciate the help. Long story short: FC asks which program to run to display jpgs every time, doesn't save the choice.but file explorer does, so it seems to be a FC/communication issue. inis for my FC, etc.have no problems at all.

My desktop PC and my previous laptop, where I used the same method of "resurrecting" the old photo viewer, use the exact same. And when I open a picture in a different file format first, both photo viewer and irfanview can easily jump to my jpgs and display them. It really seems to be just jpgs, though, I haven't seen other file formats having the same issue. I also tried setting irfanview as the default program for *.jpg in the FC settings, but it just ignores me and throws that stupid app selection popup at me anyway. It doesn't even matter which photo viewer I tell it to use (and "always use this app to open."), I've tried irfanview, for example.the next time I want to open a jp(e)g it just asks again. I've reinstalled FC multiple times, also going back to vanilla with the settings.nothing. It kinda does, on the laptop I'm talking about, as well.but only if I use windows file explorer. Done that on multiple systems with the registry edit, and it always worked flawlessly. Now, I'm one of those people who absolutely loathe the "new" Win10 photos app, so I've made sure to go back to the old Photo Viewer on every single PC I use. Whenever I want to open a jp(e)g, it asks me which program I'd like to use for that.

I'm having a very weird issue with FC (840, 32bit) on my laptop, in that it doesn't seem to be able to remember file associations for.
