    Hi guys. Long story short, I want, when I right-click on an image file, for it to "Open" with Windows Photo Viewer, and "Edit" with Photoshop CS3.

    I remember you used to be able to edit each command with a GUI (I think in ME?) but in Vista/7 it appears you can only select a single Default Program for each file type.

    ie I can get it to Open with WPV and Edit with MSPaint, or Open and Edit with CS3, but not choose the Edit program manually.

    I take it it's possible to do by editting the registry directly? (I'd prefer to do it that way over installing an app).

    Cheers
