Friend replaced hard drive and recovered all files and programs such as Office. Everything working OK but if someone emails jpeg, mov, etc. files I can see icon but cannot download or play.

Then it would seem some file associations are missing or invalid.

That would probably work. But since there was a drive crash, and a 'recovery' to a different drive..it is unknown the extent of the weirdness involved.

Right click, select "Choose default program..."

Yahoo mail in the browser? You probably have to set that association in the browser settings.
