Photograph viewing and resizing in Vista

I have just bought an Inpsiron 1525 and I am having a bit of bother getting use to Vista when dealing with photos.

With WinXP it was easy to preview by doubly clicking on a photo. With Vista I cannot seem to find the preview program under "Open With". I keep having to open an editing program or windows photo gallery which doesn't even have all my photos in it, This is most unsatisfactory. The best I can do is right click and choose preview which is a bit of a pain when you have loads of photos to view.

 

Also I cannot find the useful resizing feature which could be accessed by right click on a photo in winxp. Any ideas on how to get this to work woul be appreciated.

Thanks

Terry

    Unfortunately there is no photo resizing utilities included with Vista, but there are numerous freeware versions available for download that work just fine Vista.  As for viewing your pictures, I would recommend IrfanView, another free shareware program that will allow you to view you pics in many various formats. Search on Google.
