Ok me again

Found another one here, I have installe the SWF player on my iMac, and I just noticed that he has grabbed all of the .exe extension under Windows.

So everytime that I try to open a .exe file SWF player come on and I just can't see how to change this in the SWF preference?

Anyone as a clue

Tks

You'd right click on an Exe file and use 'open with'. Although I'm not sure what you'd select.
I assume the problem goes away if you uninstall SWF player?
If you uninstall and reinstall it, look for an option where you tell it what file extensions to use.

This should be under the Alt. OS forum because its not iMac specific. If a mod notices it, they will move it for you, or you can ask for it to me moved.
