How do I change Windows picture and fax viewer as a default application for opening photo file ?

I know how to change this by right click%26gt;open with%26gt; choose default programme. But there is no option for Windows picture and fax viewer.

you could use a free third party viewer as suggested and set that as the default; Faststone Image Viewer allows you to view in Full screen mode and includes a host of neat features. It's free too.
