Hi peeps
a while ago i installed quicktime to use with creative suite.
this has set it as the default viewer when accessing 'external e' (my card reader that i use to view my camera pics)
unfortunately it will only show thumbnails and when double clicking on the pic all you got was the frame/box for quick time and no picture.
so i decided to erase /delete quicktime and go back to prev prog to view.
have deleted qt from progs menu, and then all except two that i found when 'search files' (because qt was still operating) - the two left when clicked on show ' undo delete' so i think these must be the two i deleted first time from the prog menu.
BUT qt is still there operating and opening the card reader pics - help please!
thanks

go to "control panel"

then "add/remove programs"

then find "quicktime player" (or maybe "apple quicktime player")

click "uninstall"

thought of that but it doesnt appear in control panel install/uninstall.
hence why i'm asking for help
help!!!!!!!!!!!
:help:
:)

Change the file association in Folder Options in Control Panel so that the pics aren't opened with QT.

hi peeps,
thanks for your help.
went to control panel /folders/etc and changed it.

worked a treat after finding which opened it the fastest.

still little curious as to how / why qt is/was still running/opening files after i had deleted it

thanks again - think sheff forum is best thing on net/web - and the people using it some of the friendliest and most helpful i have come across.

:thumbsup:

You obviously didn't delete it. :wink: By the looks of it you only deleted the shortcuts which point to the QuickTime program. The actual program itself is somewhere else within Windows.
