I'm quite sure this question must have been asked many times already. Sorry
for the repeating. I wish I could have "open with PS" in the listing when I
right clicked on a picture. Is that possible? Thanks for any input.

Right click on a photo file, go to the "Open With" menu, click on "Choose A
Program".
In the Programs window, highlight "Recommended Programs", Below the Programs
window is a "Browse" button. Click it, go to the program you want to add to
your "Open With" list, in this case Photoshop. Find the executable program
file for Photoshop and highlight it. You should see Photoshop in the "File
Name" box and "Programs" in the "Files of type" box. Click the Open button,
close the remaining windows and then check your Open With list to see if
Photoshop is listed.

Worked for me,

First:
You should have stated what operating system. The following will work for
almost any version of Windows ... but is probably no good for that "other"
operating system.

Second:
(1) Start Windows Explorer [the system file manager ... 'My Computer kind
of "Explorer"]

(2) 'View'

(3) 'Folder Options'

(4) 'File Types'

(5) Find the entry for 'Adobe PhotoShop' (or 'Adobe PhotoShop Elements')

(6) 'Edit'

(7) 'New'

(8) Type "Open with PhotoShop" (without the quotes) in the first box

(9) Use the 'Browse' button to navigate to where your PhotoShop EXE file is
located, and select that file in the second box

(10) Click 'OK' three times

You will now have an entry for "Open with PhotoShop" on your right-click
menu

Thanks for the input.

Sorry for the missing info. I'm using XP and IE6.

Let me repeat my wish. For instance ; I have a picture on the internet
browser. Is it possible to have the PS in the right click listing as "Open
with PS" so that I could open that picture with PS? If yes, how can I get
listed PS in the picture right click? Hope this is clearer.

Thanks

The 'Right Click' menu in **Internet Explorer** is a totally different
proposition.

I don't know if that actually can be done ... after all, Micro$cum actually
thinks that *****Adobe***** really **is** the Evil Empire! In case you
haven't already noticed ... there is **very** little cooperation between
the two companies.

You can only do that after you right-click and "save picture as..." first.
Then you can open the folder and select "Open with..." Mine has the option
of "Edit with ImageaReady" and "Edit with Photoshop" immediately on
right-click without delving deeper into the sub-options.
