I'd say, just off-hand, that you need to set another default image viewer, but not knowing your distro, version, window manager, etc, I have little chance of determining how.

Re: [Gimp-user] Gimp remove
Your files are unchaged you can open them with any graphic tool, or browse them with any good viewer (that is not MS fax and images viewer but free tool as xnview , irfanview or fastone image viewer,all free and with no ads) Back to the problem , what changed is only the icon associated to your file, you must be tricked during the install, to associate files to Gimp ( that in windows usually is not a very good idea). In theory must be sufficent right click on every kind of file(jpg, png and so on) and from the drop down menu to (re)associate them to ...whatever you like use to browse or open them as default. But ,in windows in the practice this seldom works , what it works usually is install something as irfanview (www.irfanview.com) and associate to him all graphic files That will break the gimp file association and once done you can even unistall irfanview ( but no much reason to unistall, work much better then the fax and image viewer and can perform on the fly most of the editing needed as resize,crop, correct saturation, contrast , gamma, hue, apply effect or even PS filter...and organize resize convert in other format even in batch mode). -- - PS for the developers...i hope the windows installer of next gimp 2.4 will NOT offer a options to associated files to gimp. That option is usually misunderstood by users, bring them only troubles and not advantages and make them even a little paranoid (they believe that something is changed in their files , since the icon is changed). its also unneeded as option...if some Windows user for some weird reason want associate some kind of graphic file to Gimp it has just to right click on the file to do it. If not when prompted to associate graphic files to gimp most of new users will just give a random answer,(usually yes ), withouth really be aware of the consequences ( no so terrible but disturbing...any time you double click on a jpg to open in hurry ... you must wait to gimp to load..) At least will be better move that preference from the install dialogue to the preference menu, that is the most obvious place for preferences Alchemie Foto\grafiche - - L'email della prossima generazione?
