XnView Software

I have to use right click > open with > check box to always open with to force register/associate certain file types with XnView.

However, those file types won't display in XnView even though I click them and XnView opens.

.ico, .tiff, etc won't display even after methods mentioned above.



I've tried, but to no avail.

Default programs> Set your default programs > (Program name goes here) > Choose defaults for this program.

Any help here?

XnView 2.00.0, my XnView settings are stored in the .ini under the XnView installation folder.

Also tried running XnView as Administrator.

Is it good for .bmp?

I'm unsure, I haven't tried .bmp

I noticed a strange problem/pattern, though.

When double clicking the .ico images, XnView opens, but doesn't display the images. However, if I drag n drop .ico images into XnView, XnView displays the .ico images.

I recorded my problem with Problem Steps Recorder. It's an .mht file. Several browsers that can open .mht files: Maxthon, Internet Explorer 7/8/9/10/etc, Opera, Firefox + Mozilla Archive Format

Here is a link to the .mht file that was created with Problem Steps Recorder so that you may further investigate and get a better idea of my issue.

No, .ico isn't listed in that list no matter how many times I check.

Yes.

When I double click .jpeg images, XnView shows nothing.

When I drag .jpeg images to XnView, XnView displays the images.

And yes, I want to change the extensions in the list to open with XnView.

Nevermind, installing XnView 2.03 appears to have fixed my issue.
