Hello,

How do I change the 'Edit with' option when right-clicking an image in InDesign?

My work PC, when I right click an image I get the helpful option to edit with Photoshop, but when I'm on my home PC I get less than helpful options like paint and notepad.

When I click the 'Other' option I have to find the Photoshop.exe file but there are no options to make this the default setting (Like you typically do on windows when selecting a new file type > program)

Anyone know how I can do this as I often switch between the two.

I've checked through the preferences but haven't found the option.

Photoshop CC

Indesign CC

Both updated to latest versions

Thanks

right click a image file (for example .jpg) > then click "property" > "Open with" click on the "Change" button > choose Photoshop application > OK

Now open indesign and all the .jpg images you can edit by default with Photoshop

I don't wish for images on... say my desktop to default open to Photoshop every time, I like the Windows image preview. I just want Edit With > Photoshop through Indesign.

Unless what you're saying does that? but it sounds like I'd be defaulting the whole system to open all .jpgs through Photoshop, which I don't want.

Thanks
