Thanks a million, Dave.
I did many searches and finally found out that many people like me have the
same problem with "open with" and Photoshop CS5.
I'm going to a presentation tonight in Ottawa at Adobe on Indesign CS5
(which I also have) and plan to ask the question there. After all although
the forum is Indesign, these people are with Adobe. If they can't help me,
they might point me in the right direction.
Best regards,
Marcel

Thanks Parko!
Dowloaded it. Ran it.
Got the following statement: "No Nero products detected or nothing selected
for clean. Exiting Nero General Clean Tool" (I got a list which disappeared
as fast as it appeared.

Hi Trev!
That's what I'm doing right now. It's really not a big problem, except if I
double-click on a file to open it, it doesn't open with Photoshop...

I don't think it's an Adobe problem.
I have just installed PhotoShop CS5 onto Win7 64 bit and I can open a .jpg with
Photoshop and make it stick on the 'Open with...' menu.
Do you have any antivirus stuff running in the background?

You'll probably need to re-install the offending Nero product, then run
the Dl'd uninstaller utility. I had a similar problem 3 years ago with an
XP machine and an earlier version of Nero.

While you're there, browse a bit. NirSoft has a lot of things, many of
which are useful. Your useful set probably won't be quite the same as mine,
but it's a fun site.

That's a good idea, but CS5 installation is an either / or. I installed it
in 64 bit. MInd you, I can try a reinstall / repair

Wrong! CS5 will allow the installation of both 32 & 64 bit. I know cause
I both installed on my Windows 7x64.

Of course, you're right, Frank.
What I meant was one had the choice.
Hoewever, could you please enlighten me on one thing: How do I know which is
which once (and if) it's installed on both 32 and 64 bit. All I get is
Photoshop in the uninstall program. I'm asking because I re-ran the
installation and saw the 64 bit was the second one (the one below).
Secondly, Is there a merit in having both 32 and 64 bit?
Third. If I want only the 64 bit, can I unisntall the whole thing and
re-install, even if it's an upgrade and my CS3 is on anothe machins now?
Since this is a Win thread, you may answer me directly.
Thanks for taking the time to answer.

If you go to all programs/CS5 you'll see they are clearly marked:

Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64bit)

and

Adobe Photoshop CS5

Once you click on uninstall CS5 in Programs & Features, you'll see a
choice as to which individual programs you wish to uninstall. If you've
installed both the 32 & 64bit of PS you'll see both of those choices
listed.
As to the merits of both, 64 will run slightly faster and will use more
RAM but it will not run most all of the previous (old) plug-ins that
will still run on the 32 bit.

Therefore I'd suggest you keep both, but if you want to uninstall the
32bit, just simply select it when you click on the uninstall.

I hesitate to start an potential argument with Frank but I've got Win
7 installed on several machines, some in 32 bit and some in 64 bit and
frankly I can't tell the difference. At least not when I move from one
machine to another although if I were to run two machines side by side
I might.

If I were in doubt, I'd just install in 32 bit mode and go merrily on
my way.

This, of course, ignores the certainly valid fact that 64 bit is the
wave of the future so does one want to be part of the cutting edge, or
not?

I really only notice the difference when "rendering" a large file in 64
vs. 32.
Other than that I'm a little irritated that my old plug-ins don't work
in 64.
