Hello all. I have a scanner and when I hit the button the following message
came up... "Select the program to launch for this action". I picked an
applications and then checked the box that stated... "Always use this program
for this action". Unfortunately I picked the wrong application and now
everytime I hit the button the wrong appcomes up. Is there a way to reset
that so I can pick a different application. Thanks for your time!

This is how it works on my PC. Hopefully, yours will be the
same.

Go to My Computer and right click the icon for your scanner.
Select Properties from the drop down menu. Click on the Events
tab and make the desired changes under "Start this program" for
each event listed in the "Select an Event" box.
