Photo Editor issues. Some help please

Hi
I have been using Photo Editor on a project the last couple of days and really like it but I have two major hassles:
1. The preview window is not showing up at all so it is really difficult to work on small areas of the image. I have tried reinstalling a couple of times but that has made no difference.

My operating system is XP Professional and I am using FireFox.

2. The next problem I have is that Photo Editor has taken over as my default editor and so when I just want to do something quick or just view a photo I can't open it in Microsoft Picture manager as I could before installing. (an example is when a client emails me a picture. I used to just click on it to open and check the image quickly - now it opens Photo editor instead)

How do I stop it being 'default' and make it only open when I want it to?

Many thanks for a great product other than this!

And what happened to Preview window. Has it just disappeared?

Hi and thanks for quick response. The preview window is simply not there. It didn't disappear ... just never there in the first place

Anyway I'll try the fix for my second problem as soon as I reinstall and let you know how I go.

OK, and what about Preview window, I think the only way to turn it on is to delete C:\Windows\phedit.ini file to recycled bin.
