    Lost default photo viewer after profile rebuild

    Thanks Brink. I've tried those steps before i started searching Google. After the profile rebuild i don't have the Photo app listed to choose to make it default in either the system settings for default apps or the Open With option.

    I can't even find it doing a search. Seems to have been removed somehow with the profile rebuild, which doesn't make sense.

    Might be helpful to list what i've done Computer resets to default after restart :) I've done the open with check, the choose default program in the system menu, tried that in device manager default programs also. I've checked the programs and features Turn windows features on/off and it's not listed there (never thought it was but that was a suggestion), searched the MS Store, it's not listed there either.

    I don't like playing in the registry unless i have defined steps and haven't found anything for this yet, just the Win7 version like in my OP.

    resetting to default

    I'm new to the whole overclocking thing, and was wondering how the ATItool works. My question is if u restart your computer does all the settings you've made from the ATItool go back to default? or it all stays where u set it on ATItool? and if it doesn't go back to default after a reboot how do you get your settings on your video card back to default, i have a Radeon x700 Pro
