Can't open jpg's by right-clicking

I just installed PSE 14 on my PC running Windows 10. Very often I right click on jpg's and opt for "open with" and then choose my program. However, this isn't working since I installed PSE 14.

What happens is, 14 opens, then asks me to choose between Editor, Organizer, etc. When I choose Editor, the jpg I've tried to open isn't open once the program's done loading.

Any idea what is going on here?

    Right click and choose: Open with >> Choose another app

    Hover to the right to grab the scroll bar and scroll to the bottom of the dialog and choose: More apps.

    Scroll again to the bottom and choose: Look for another app on this PC

    Navigate to:

    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 14

    Select (highlight) the application PhotoshopElementsEditor

    Click Open

    I think there's something wrong with the program files. I have a bunch of folders, and an icon for the PSE with a little arrow on it, like for a shortcut. I don't have a regular icon to open the program. Unless it's somewhere in one of those folders? I've never run into this problem before.

    When I click on that logo, it takes me into a folder called PSE 14, and here's a screenshot of what I see:


    It worked! Thanks so much!
