Quikview not available in file view options
DanOfWA
I had to recently recover my registry due to some errors and now
quikview of files is not an option in the file extension properties area
I do have quikview.exe in the proper directory (folder)
and it does not work with command line use
ie quikview c:\windows\xxx.xxx
or by using the send to trick
I have restored it from cab files and it still doesn't work
any ideas? I would really like to get this damn thing working again
Please let me know if there is a way to get windows to recognize this
program again
an easy one if possible....if not one that requires massive registry
editing is better than nothing
thanks

Have you tried Add/Remove Programs > Windows Setup > Accessories?
Click Details on Accessories, if Quikview is checked un-check it,
close Control Panel then go back and check it.
Be sure to use OK both times.
It may need to be installed instead of restored.

yes I did try that........
I finally removed all ref to quick view in the registry and
programs rebooted and then reinstalled via add remove ....took me two
times but it worked.....I think prob was in a corrupted file somewhere
that didn't allow quickview to work right
