i think you can change that behaviour by setting something in that windows manager thing -- i can't remember the name of it now. Display Manager? it has been a while since i used windows, but they set it up so that you can tell it which application to use to open different kinds of files. as far as removing it goes -- the gimp i use only knows where the images it has touched are on my desktop. it scans only its own resources on start up and does not attach itself to any of your images. you can remove it cleanly and quickly that way. i am curious, during the instalation process, did you agree to have gimp manage all of your images? your problems are due to your initial conversation with the installer i think and not with gimp itself. i am sorry it was not a nicer experience for you. carol _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
