'Nother Question- Windows Picture and Fax Viewer= Evil

I don't want to open my picture files using the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer.  I'd like it to open directly to Paint Shop Pro.

 

Avenues I've already explored (that haven't worked):

Opening Paint Shop Pro and making sure it was the default program for that file type

Tools>Folder Options>File Types>Manually changing program with which file opens by choosing from a list

Tools>Folder Options>File Types>Advanced>Manually finding the location of Paint Shop Pro and pasting said location into dialog box

    Go to my documents - my pictures. Then right click on a picture file. Move the mouse pointer to "Open With". Then another box will be displayed showing all programs for picture viewing, at the bottom there is a option, "Choose Program". Pick the program you want to use. Now and very important, be sure to check the box "Always use the selected program to open this file type", click OK. That should do it. You need to do that for each file type you want to set to open in whatever program.
