How can I change what type of file to save a file as. SINCE I installed a certain program every image I try to save off the Internet wants to save it associated to that program. The only other choice in the "save as" area is "all files".

thanksChange the file ASSOCIATION for the image file type.
Since the SOFTWARE wouldn't let me PICK what to associate the file with I deleted the software, now I can choose.Usually you can use the "Open with... " dialog in WINDOWS Explorer to change what opens a file type, if you check the "Always use this program" box before clicking OK. You should be able to do this whatever program changed it, even while it is still installed. But a jpg is still a jpg (for example) despite what Windows chooses to show as the file type.

The software you have installed doesn't change the "type" or the contents of a file, it only changes what your system recognizes the file as.

For example when I download a PNG image, Firefox lists it as an "Adobe Photoshop Document". It's still a PNG image, I just happen to have the PNG extension associated with Photoshop.
