Exif replaced PS right click on pictures

pdanev · November 13th, 2005, 11:23 PM

So I installed Exif viewer as suggested by one of the guys on the photography section, and it's a nice program, no problems.

However, in windows, when I right click an image, I used to have 2 lines saying Open/Edit with Photoshop and Open/Edit with Imageready.

Now those are gone, instead I have View with Exif. images/smilies/mad.gif

I use right click on image -> open with ps all the time, so I really would like to have that back! Looked in PS, can't find any option enabling/disabling this. Looked in Exif nothing there either.

Any help greatly appreciated.

I hate it when programs do that.
Don't know how to explain this, but I'll try. If you have the menu "open with" in the right-click menu there should be a "choose another program" (or something like that) and you can choose to open all of the same type of files with that program you choose, then I seem to remember that when I did that I got some more lines in the right-click menu.
Did that make any sence images/smilies/mellow.gif

Ah yeah, I do have it under open with -> and then I can chose PS from there. But I'd still like it the old way because the open with PS was on top of the right click menu and was really handy images/smilies/cry.gif

What about if you uninstall PS and install it again? it may be a little work, but it should solve the problem...

I had the same problem. A system restore fixed the issue.

There are programs that allow you to edit the right click menus in windows:
